So.... here I go again about white vinegar! So many uses.... they keep growing by the day. (well almost) I found a link on the weekend referring making copper coins clean and all sparkly again. Now this I knew, I can remember doing it when I was a child. But what I did not know was, that this same recipe will tarnish and copper plate metal, what kinds of metal I am not sure... still experimenting. I brought some charm on special at spotlight... bright shiny silver.... (not my favourite, I like old) any-ways... I have tried tarnishing and copper plating these and thus far it seems to be working. I am reasonably impressed. I seem to be spend all my time in the studio which I commonly refered to as my art cave these days....( so yes this is a good thing)... Right where was I going with this ..before the phone rang. That 's right I have been working on my casting plaster products again... and are finally getting them to a place where I am happy, using a lime wash and transfer techniques. I am loving this effect, I can not wait to try more of my designs. I have had this image in my mid near on two years and this is the 2nd time I have tried playing...I feel I am still not there yet! But I will keep on keeping on, until I get to a place where I am happy with.

I have spent the last couple of days up dating my websites... YAY. I have also started to get together my Images for the New Zealand Art Show next month which feel even better. I was kind of starting frett that I had nothing new. So if you like the sound of an Elephant with wings or a Marlin Fishing, Birds caring musical note check them out they are amusing... well I think so. Maybe it was the red bull Here is little taste... of my new work. Lavender Tomorrow I will be giving away some images.. free for download... then over the following week I will post a tutorial of what can be done with these prints... nice easy Christmas gifts. But for now here is one of the images I will be working with. |
