CopprClay experiments

I received some packages of the new CopprClay from Rio Grande a few weeks ago. Since then, I’ve been experimenting like crazy with this exciting new medium. While I’ve previously had some experience with both Silver Art Clay and with Precious Metal Clay in Silver, I have to say that I’m more interested in the copper, both for it’s color and for the added measure of “workability” that I think it has. And its price!!
I haven’t yet fired these pieces that I’m going to show you today. It seems that firing CopprClay is a little trickier than Silver, so I’m going to be experimenting with that over the course of a few days. But I didn’t want to delay in showing you a couple of the pieces that will be fired soon!
Here’s a link to some process shots that I took of these pieces:
