| Stellarscape 96" diameter |
Stellarscape started out many years ago as a great
enameling adventure. That adventure continued for 17 months to completion.
The work is created
from 45 geometrically cut sheets of copper, an unknown quantity of vitreous enamel (ground glass) and
approximately 500 firings in a kiln at 1500 degrees Fahrenheit. Stellarscape represents a stellar nebulae or
exploding star. The
total size is 8 feet in diameter and divided into 5 sections. Although,
the artwork can fit completely together, I chose to separate
3 sections for a design feature.
