Mill Rolled Brass

Also the elephant pattern, mama and her baby

I hope everyone is well and stays so.

My issue is sanity.

So, I dug out my mill rolled patterned brass sheets and metal snips.

Floral patterned brass, hummingbird in the ivy

My first was the elephant and opals piece I posted on JMJ a while back.

I went to sketching silhouettes on to the brass, rough cutting it to a manageable size, then the Dremel to do the finishing work.

Solder the rings on and any leaves, etc.

If I choose to color, I use pigment inks and seal it with either matte or satin sealer.

Using the elephant pattern, I did an African acacia tree

Sorry about my photos, it was extremely bright today~
