Default Hi from Louisiana,

My name is Buddy Holmes and I have been beating on copper for a little over twenty years now. It's my full time business for the past 15 or so years. I mainly do hammered copper fountains, all sizes. Most of what I do is flora and fauna, a lot leaning to the area around here. I'm the webmaster for LAMA, Louisiana Metalsmiths Assoc (mainly blacksmiths, but some diversity there). I'm glad I found you folks. I'm sure I'll learn a lot.

Buddy

Buddy, welcome and thanks for the introduction. We have several members here that work in copper. Took a look at your site and think your work is excellent. If you get down on the Mississippi Gulf Coast let me know, I'll give you a shop tour. Hope you find the site helpful and enjoyable. Looking forward to seeing you post some of your work here. Thanks for joining us.
