Unpredictable process of wet enamel

Further experimenting with the mystery of wet enamel process. Sometime ago, I made a series of enamel/copper landscape samples using this unpredictable medium. I failed to make notes on my findings - I am returning, like a beginner to this fascinating process with renewed curiosity and a lot more patience with myself. This time jotting down notes and reflections, however messy they will be there.

Inspired from my recent visit to The Japan House, London - showing the incredible Hyakko exhibition, 100+Makers from Japan. To begin, I will focus on using a limited palette of Royal blue, Black/White + transparent and recording the before and after with a photo - so much change happens in the firing that this visual diary will be a invaluable reflective tool for learning.
