About this Collection
The main subject in these pieces has been painted with enamel paint. Enamels are extremely finely ground glass powders combined with a medium to form a paint, then fired in a kiln. The flowers have been sculpted in a flame of around 1000ºC. Glass is melted then sculpted into blooms and leaves. These elements are assembled into stems and combined with the fused subjects to form the whole piece.
