Enamel Lobster "Tile"

Enamel Lobster Tile by Sarah Madsen, Enamel, 5 x 5
  • Enamel on Metal-Copper
  • 5" x 5"
  • Private Collection

Introduce to Enamelling whilst I attended Central St Martins College of Art & Design in London,England. This piece was inspired by the watercolor illustrations of Lobsters from Norwalk Aquarium,CT. This actual enameled piece has yet to be completed. Needs a few more layers of enamel and firings.
The "cells" in which the enamel fits into are built up using fine silver cloisonne wire. Piece by piece cut and bent into shape then basically all held together with the fired enamel on top of a copper base.
