When you think of fall, you think of autumn leaves in their splendid colors and of course pumpkins. The pumpkin I crafted is unique in that it's made of copper and will last for ever or until you drop it ( just kidding ) once in a while I stop making birds and concentrate on more traditional ornaments, like pumpkins. You have to be some sort of engineer to design a segmented sphere, well I'm not, but I went for it anyway.designing. it on paper was fairly easy with a compass and all that, but putting it all together was a different story and eventually I stumbled in the right direction and completed a form that resembled a, yes a pumpkin. I use copper in all my work, copper sheeting, copper wire and tubing, forming and joining individual pieces using copper brazing rod. For the heat I use oxy/acetylene that gives me a temperature between two and four thousand degrees F. When completed I give the pumpkin multiple coats of clear lacquer to keep from oxidizing

COPPER IS MY MEDIUM, I WORK WITH SHEET METAL AND SO I CRAFT MY ART. I SPENT MOST OF MY ADULT LIFE IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY TILL I RETIRED. I DO NOT HAVE ANY FORMAL TRAINING IN ART, BUT I'M GOOD WITH MY HANDS AND LIKE TO CRAFT THINGS THAT ARE CHALENGING. I'M PARTIAL TO WILD LIFE AND THE OUTDOORS AND SO THAT'S WHERE I CONCENTRATE MY CRAFT. I'M LEARNING AS I CRAFT,HAVING TO GIVE THE APPEARANCE OF LIFE TO A FLAT SHEET OF METAL IS QUITE SELF SATISFYING AND I WILL GO ON, HPE MY WORKS ARE AS SATISFYING VISUALLY TO YOU
