predictability


i just recently started using this golden rod yellow. it was one of the new colours i picked up in my latest enamel order. i liked how it turned out in this piece, so i wanted to use it again for some scallop earrings. for the most part, opaque enamels are pretty predictable once you know how they end up after firing, so i figured it would come out the same way as the pendant i had done before.

i was a bit surprised that the enamel reacted like this on the curved surface. in a way i kind of liked the effect. but at the same time, i really like predictability when i do my work, most especially when i'm trying to pair two earrings.

i'm sure i'll need this kind of aesthetic sometime, but maybe not so much for these kind of pieces.
