Copper is lovely to work with and reminds me of Zambia 🇿🇲.. works really well with emeralds..my father - awesome artist. One of his best pieces was using a Bunsen burners a flame 🔥 on the balsa wood he used for model making .. he made it into a 3D Mondrian and it had burns on it .. like a habitat shabby chic thing .., funny how that timeless look never gets better .. like something unique and just art .. genuine art
