" I want to bring the repousse' technique from the ancient world
of metal forming,and into the modern age of the 21 century.It has been about 12 years since I made that first piece,
since then I have developed my own type of fully custom portfolios,photo albums and one of a kind pieces of art, using the repousse' technique.
It seems like there is endless possibilities in which repousse' can be applied to.
Here are some samples of the pages
you can visit to see the wide range of options and combination of materials , that can be used when
putting together your own fully custom piece.
3.Borders, Inside and Spine-Here you will see a few different combinations for the borders and the spine for custom photo albums and portfolios
This site will give a little taste of
the wide range of work that I have done.I have seen repousse' work that was over 500 years old.
Just knowing that the same techniques were used back then are the same that I use now, has really giving me a new appreciation and respect for this style of art.The ancient process in doing this type of work ,by far has been the most challenging to accomplish,but also the most rewarding to produce.
My goal is to bring high quality repousse' back to peoples homes and the work place, so that everyone
has a chance to share and enjoy this ancient form of metal shaping and self expression.
The more people I can educate and share this type of art, the better chance hand crafted repousse' does not fade away,and fall
victim to today's technology and to the machines of the future."
