A small grey rabbit under a harvest moon among the flowers and stars.
Sunlight traveling through the colored cells of glass and bouncing off the fine silver. One of the things I love about cloisonné is the depth and light refraction.

A tiny painting of a rabbit (in process) achieved by kiln melting multiple layers of finely powdered glass.
Early on in the process of a small enamel painting. Maybe six kiln fires into the process.

This enamel painting technique is done by suspending extremely fine powdered glass in a medium to create a very slightly gritty paint like substance. After “painting” (I use a metal spike such as a needle as much as tiny brushes) the medium is then smoked away, and the remaining glass is melted/fused in a kiln. This is done in multiple layers to build up the final image. This piece was painted and fired more than 25 times.

This was an experiment in copper cloisonné, that I intend to repeat in silver. I actually really like how this one turned out. It has a somewhat antique feel.
