I've been experimenting lately with metallic paints and mica powder on copper sheet. I've coloured copper in the past with heat & patinas but the variation of colour achieved left me desiring a wider colour spectrum. The paints with mica are very vibrant and are getting closer to the effect I was looking for. I'm layering the work with my photographs and playing around with textures and new weaving techniques. Images to follow soon.
