6 x 6 inch

enamel on copper on panel.

I fold-form dimensional lines into copper sheet and trim the edges to shape my “canvas”. I apply liquid and sifted enamels to build up five or more layers of color. Each color is fired in a kiln at approx. 1400 degrees before the next layer is added. The surface is etched and hand sanded to a matte finish.

The wood panels are cut slightly smaller and in the same shape as the enamel pieces, which are intentionally not perfectly square.

A sawtooth hanger and bumpers are attached to the back for hanging. Signed on the back.
