Explore this exciting new medium in the jewelry arts. Hot enameling is a
process of melting transparent or opaque glass color onto metal. Where as,
Cold Enameling in its own artform is done by first applying color to your metal
and then sealing it with a glass like substance. My glass like substance is a
jewelers grade super clear resin. Every step of the process in cold enameling is
done without heat. Using cold enameling techniques you can work in layers
adding text, images, texture, photo transfers, glitters and lots of color to build
onto your metalwork and create dimensional and beautiful finished pieces. If
you are a color lover in jewelry, cold enameling is a wonderful way to bring
excitement into your work.
Also, color will be derived from a variety of techniques including enamel
paint, paper, permanent ink, caulk transfers, photo transfers, rub ons, oil
pastels, crackle enamel, traditional patinas and more. To register visit
