Enamel on copper on wood panel, 4 x 4 x 1.5 inch.
The colors are a combination of very dark green-black, bright green and brick red with a bit of black and slate gray. This piece also has a small bit of turquoise and light pink.
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 1400 degrees before the next layer is added. The surface is etched and hand sanded to a smooth matte finish. The finished piece is mounted on a wood panel with a sawtooth hanger.
