"I see my work as a continual exploration into the possibilities within the technique of enameling and indulging the wonderful range of colors available to me. In some of the work I am interested in subtle harmonies of color, reflecting observations from nature. At other times the richness and vibrancy of the colors provoke a more personal imagery." - Jane Short (b. 1954) Oil Slick tumbler 2016 Malcolm Appleby (b. 1946) design and finish; raised by Peter Musgrove (b. 1946); enameled by Jane Short (b. 1954) Edinburgh Britannia silver, enamel The Pearson Silver Collection L2018.1801.027 Special thanks to The Pearson Silver Collection.
