Mixed Media

Mitch Kamen works with enamel on copper using two primary themes of bold figures and dramatic color burst abstracts. The enamel is literally a fused layer of glass to metal, the trick is to develop a glass that contracts enough to keep pace with the cooling metal so that it doesn't crack or pop off.  Enameling has been used for hundreds of years to create dramatic and important works of art.
