Metal Textures

Sometimes you need to look into the past to create the future. I love looking at ancient patterns and textures to get ideas for future embosses and designs. Metal creations forged in fire and accented with hundred of years of weathering, have a patina and hue like no other. From copper to iron, links to hammered shapes, the inspiration for new creations is endless. Photographed at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. https://www.philamuseum.org/exhibitions/upcoming.html
