Description:
Fusing enamel to the surface of metal creates infinite opportunities to include imagery into your work. This workshop will focus on digital image creation, manipulation, application, and resolution of enameled jewelry works featuring your own photographic imagery. Combining traditional techniques of champlevé, cloisonné, and basse taille with contemporary approaches including enamel decals and photographic image etching & plating; participants will be able to create striking enamel compositions that address the surface of the metal plate, the interior of the enamel as well as the enamel’s surface.
