Green Glass Has It!

So for the next project in my enamel class I learned how to create a clear type of sheen and how layering the color created different textures.

Here you will see the golden glaze they call it flux and it looks like clear gold glass. Then I added white solid enamel.

Last step was adding the green over it all.

Matisse used flux as seen in this butterfly brooch




Last but not least here a picture of me no not wearing any jewelry but with a nice new hair trim which is alwas a nice thing to have.



Of course even better would be to have my hair this color. It reminds me if Nick Rhodes back in the day. How fun. Perhaps for burning man I liven it up some.

Happy June = Summer Vacation

Today is the start of June. Usually a very busy month for me. More enamel classes. A friend visiting, getting braces, going to the swap meet for hopefully more hidden treasures to take home and a refreshing new hair cut. Yes I will post pictures. With that said I'm taking a small vacation.

If given a chance I'll date a few posts so. I will soon have two more enamel projects completed.
