come on into the enamored studio!

i love seeing other artist's workspaces. it doesn't matter what the craft is, seeing where someone spends so much time, where they actually create their art is so interesting. so, hopefully you find it interesting to see where i work!





this is where the enameling happens!





an action shot!
the blue powder is enamel, i.e. powdered glass.
it gets sifted onto, in my case, fine silver and put on a trivet
as seen on the left before getting fired in my kiln at 1450 degrees.
(note: yummy enamel colors in background)




and finally, for your laughing pleasure:
me in my fabulous enameling attire next to my beloved kiln!
