Enamel Explorations

I had a great semi-private lesson yesterday at the Morean Arts Center, St. Pete, with two students who had taken the Torch-Fired Enamel Workshop I.  Yesterday was all about play.  We worked with liquid enamels, shibuichi a la Maire Dodd, sgraffito, millefiori, cat's whiskers, ceramic underglaze pigments ...

The first pic is of a felted vessel by Vicki, who is a talented fiber artist and teacher.  The final thing we do at the beginning workshop is to embed wire shapes into the enamel.  This is Vicki's wonderful felted piece with her growth spiral pendant.




Next comes a parade of torch-fired enamel explorations ....
