Landscape Stone are a traditional copper art production process, which requires artists to have certain skills and experience. The following are the technical requirements for Landscape Stone:
1. Copper material selection: Artists should choose high-quality copper materials, such as pure copper or copper alloy, with good ductility and forgeability for subsequent cold hammer forging.
2. Design and planning: Before doing
stone carving on copper, the artist should do a good job of design and planning. They should understand the shapes, poses and details to be created and develop a detailed stone carving plan.
3. Utilize a hammer and chisel: Hammer casting is the primary process for Landscape Stone. The artist must learn to pound the copper plate with a hammer and chisel so that it gradually acquires the desired shape and texture. This requires good hand-eye coordination and strength control.
4. Thermal Treatment: During the Landscape Stone process, the artist may need to heat the copper to soften it and make it easier to work with. This is usually done by methods such as roasting, welding or brazing.
5. Support structure and base design: Depending on the size and shape of the Landscape Stone, the artist also needs to design and construct the support structure and base to ensure the stability and balance of the
stone sculpture.
6. Fine processing and modification: Once the preliminary stone carving shape is completed, the artist needs to perform fine processing and modification. This may include steps such as trimming, sanding, and polishing to give the stonework a smooth, detailed surface and enhance its beauty.
7. Anti-corrosion treatment: Landscape Stone should undergo anti-corrosion treatment to protect them from corrosion and discoloration by the external environment and oxides.
Overall, landscape monoliths require artists to have the skills and skills to forge and work copper. They require patience, meticulousness, and a unique artistic eye to create beautiful, expressive landscape monolithic pieces.
