Copper Trees
This is my wife, Marian's, copper tree that I made for her. It is like a swamp tree. Her favorite place to hunt is near a swamp at her camp in Claiborne County called, Jasper Bottom Hunting Club. Recently I have been adding green moss to the base of the trees to make them look more realistic. I have sold and given away a lot of my trees. I enjoying making them and it gives me something to do with my hands. I go to Home Depot to get my copper, cut to size and then shape into a tree. No two trees are alike. I can make small, medium and large ones. One day while hunting I was studying this tree in the woods and thought to myself that I can make a tree out of copper and that is how it all got started.
