Looking Directly At The Sun...

Yep! I've found another way to heat things and melt them into something, hopefully something interesting! Barbara Lewis, owner of Painting With Fire, created a technique for metal enameling with a torch that sounds fun and easy. I've been lurking around at the Painting With Fire website and have joined her "Ning" group and have dared to dangle my foot into the proverbial fire! If you haven't seen enamel work, it is pretty amazing. You can heat and bond beautiful glossy colors onto metal. Painting with fire indeed! The name says it all and as soon as I can clear my schedule and set up a permanent work space I will be playing with it too! I have a very specific project in mind and it I am super excited to get started! Down the path I go.... Check out these enamel artists...

I did too, but I'm still hesitating due to my fear of melting my house or blowing up the garage!!!I love enameled stuff. All these artists you've mentioned are fabulous too:)
