ARMOUR AND SCULPTURE
Copper Coat of Arms

What is interesting about this family crest is that it is made out of a piece of copper from the old kettle recently removed from the family’s brewery. At a quarter inch thick, this piece was far too heavy to be sculpted in my usual Repousse fashion. So I roughed out the general shape, then carved in the fine details using chisels and air tools.
