I've been fascinated with this cooper flame painting and doing some earrings. I'm still trying to control colors and understand the sequences and torch settings.. I've been using a butane kitchen torch. Will be setting up my small torch later to propane. I just want to thank you for doing a great instructional video. Lots are just doing but not explaining. These earrings are top sellers next to my Polymer clay ones. I do mix the media. Thanks for your help .
Your work is incredible! Thanks so much for sharing. I am interested giving this a try but have no idea where to begin in terms of equipment to purchase. Could you point me in the right direction? Thank you!
This is exactly what I want to do. I want to "paint" a copper strip to place on my fireplace mantle. What gauge copper is easy to paint and easy to mold onto a board? Would I go as low as 5 gauge?
Hi- regarding the clear coating, I would really like to safe the magenta color and others that may change after the clear coating. What happened if I don’t apply it?
If you don’t apply a clear coat, the copper will continue to oxidize and the colors will fade. Eventually, it might even turn brownish again. You should clear coat immediately after flame painting.
