Lagnaippe

Enameling is a very exacting art.  After several years I wanted to experiment and so I turned to torchfiring.  Instead of firing the enamel in a kiln, it is fired on a metal grate with a handheld torch.  The effects are totally unpredictable as an enamel will behave one way when in the controlled environment of the kiln and in a completely opposite manner with the intense, direct heat of a torch.

Here are just a few pieces with more to come.  If you see something you like or have a design in mind, just let me know.
