too late for autumn

now that it is nye, i thought it was high time i posted this most definitely, autumn piece.

one of my experimental pieces, i think it actually holds a lot of prospect. flame coloring copper is so much fun to play with, and there are a few people out there that have completely mastered it enough to essentially "paint" pictures on copper, just using the flame. i of course, can barely manage to get it to turn random colors in an even more random placement...but learning by doing is what keeps me goin ;0>

i finished it with a low-gloss lacquer to preserve the color before i had my renaissance wax...on all future pieces i will use the wax instead, unless of course the piece just needs an extra bit of shine.
