Description

Try a different approach to "cooking" with enamel on metal. Manipulate thin copper using innovative tools and techniques to impart interesting textures. Then, fuse layers of eye-popping glass enamel colors to the metal. Cooking methods range from flame kissing with a hand held torch up to 3200 degrees to slow roasting in a 1500 degree oven (electric kiln.) Your creative discoveries will be served up in a custom handmade book! All levels of "cooks" are welcome. $
