To create truly unique jewelry, I use different acids, chemicals and even wine to achieve the many colors and patterns in my patinas. I never write any formulas down but have fun experimenting with my metals. I use multiple coats of lacquer (both shiny and matte) to give depth and keep the patina from changing or touching your skin.

Once I started learning how the flame affects all metals differently my head was spinning. I play with heating and cooling my metals with different torches and temperatures to get the colors that I dreamed about. I used to be scared of the torch but since then I have grown to love how the metal reacts and flows also when heating and soldering.
