Boxes are objects that fascinate me. This is a copper box that I made that is acid etched on the top and covered with a green patina. I guess I like boxes because they are not only art, but are functional. The working parts of hinges and latches must fit together perfectly to work properly. Boxes are a lot harder to make than you might think. I've given up on making them because it came to a point where I became so frustrated trying to finish them and just moved on to other projects. But I've never given up the idea completely. They keep calling to me to come back.
