I am a .... Example: Student, Maker, Educator, etc.: I have been working in my medium since 1972 and am basically self-taught. I came to enameling by accident while studying on a Fulbright Scholarship to Germany in 1968-9. When I first saw something red hot and molten emerging from an enameling kiln and then watched as brilliant transparent colors and the gloss of glass appeared gradually before my eyes, I was hooked. Enameling was destined to become my profession and my way of life. I am currently on the board of the Northern California Enamel Guild. I sell my work through retail crafts fairs and through my website at www.jstoneenamels.com. I have taught enameling all over the U. S. I currently teach enameling at The Crucible in Oakland, CA.

Hi Judy,
Welcome to crafthaus. These pieces are lovely. I started the New Jersey Metal Arts Guild with Amy Roper Lyons, in order to recreate the wonderful sense of community which I consider you a part of, that I experienced in the Bay Area.
