AN INORDINATE FONDNESS OF BEETLES

I am still experimenting with enamelling.
I created these beetle pieces using the transfers I screen printed earlier in the month. The colours are applied first and the writing is fired pencil.
The moths are transfers applied onto thin copper foil shapes
I am really enjoying the challenge of this new technique.
