Color on Metal: A presentation by Deborah Lozier April 17, 2010

Deborah Lozier will discuss the philosophy of her unique aesthetic, development of forms in copper and wonderful application of color through enameling processes. Her artwork ranges from jewelry to containers and sculpture. Learn how she resolves issues of creating 3D forms to be enameled using techniques not always associated with copper fabrication.

Deborah’s work will be on display as one of the featured artists in Pathways, an exhibition of Jewelry and Metal Arts Educators of the San Francisco Bay Region in Evergreen Valley College’s Art Gallery in the new Visual Arts building. Come enjoy an afternoon with a wonderful artist of international renown.
