This is a painted piece that has used all the techniques learned at the course with J. Kenneth Leap. It is 8x8 inches. The piece has been traced and fired in black. Two mattes were applied in black separately and fired to achieve the light shading. A brown matte was applied and fired for the final shading and a ginger transparent paint was applied all over and fired to give the piece some color. The texture on the back of the glass makes it change with the position one views it from even in the same light. Reflected light will cause the painting to disappear. Pretty cool!
Wow, that's gorgeous. Such delicate shading.
