messy messy studio! bad-bad-bad! Not a lot of time to hang out today, so I cleaned the place up. But I just couldn't resist futzing with that copper lip piece from yesterday. The one with the patina from heating (the reds) and fuming (the greens). When I fumed it the reds were diminished somewhat and I was hoping I could get them to pop again if I heated the piece one more time. BUT, no dice. As the copper heated up, all those wonderful green specks disappeared! So it's back into the fuming container, hoping to get some green to return. Lesson learned :)
