research, then make work

Posted by Christine Cholewa on 15th March 2007

Since i arrived in Farnham I have spent a lot of time taking photos and making drawings from these photos. I have compiled quite a collection of images, mostly of trees, branches, people, rubbish, and buildings. i have started to combine these images and enamelling or engraving them onto the glass. It has been 6 or 7 weeks of research and travel, and this last week i have finally went into the studio to make some test pieces closer to how i would like the finished work to be. I still have to get into the silk screening area and print decals to use, but i am happy with the enamelling and engraving i have done. so far this it is still only a test, but with good results!
