Jess
Reverse painted glass enamels
60 H x 30 W x .6 D cm
Jess is first a portrait and second a painting. Third, Jess is a reverse painting executed with fired enamels on glass, but I see it as the presence of a person, not a material. This medium allowed my gesture. I could not have created this piece in any other way.
