Frances and Dan Hedblom are January’s featured artists at Art on Broadway at the Albert Lea Art Center. Residents of Rochester, the Hedblom’s create their work by hand through a process of hammering, buffing and flame painting. There are no chemicals, paints or stains used in the process of bringing out the colors in the copper. By combining their individual talents, the Hedblom’s are able to design and create these beautiful flame-painted copper works.

Their copper paintings will be for sale at Art on Broadway through January.
