Vitreous enamel on copper
Artists Statement
The vitreous enamel, the glossy decorative surface of this pendant, is glass. In fact, when layered properly it acts much like stained glass. Here, without color the embedded silver foil and opaque white intensify the light effect.
Artist Bio
In a little hotplate on the kitchen table at age 12, Paula Sinclair learned to fuse glass to copper. Self-taught and matured, she now designs statement necklaces. With transparent and opaque vitreous enamels fired at 1500° F. or more into a gooey orange-hot mass, she surrenders to the unexpectedness of the heat effects. Her transparent enamels make light play through to the copper like stained glass. Her work can be seen at Full Moon Gallery in Twin Falls.
