A 12" x 12" panel featuring a large, exotic tropical leaf pattern created by tracing the shape of a real leaf onto copper sheet foil, adding a double glass border around the panel, and finishing the edges with zinc came or a wooden frame. For the final touches, decorative solder and patina are added to the background portion of the design. This project was constructed using the copper foil technique.
