Dale Devereux Barker
 

Dale's first foray into using vitreous enamel was a result of being commissioned by law firm Clifford Chance to make several large works for their head quarters in London (see public commissions page for images) This fascinating alchemic process of fusing coloured glass onto metal combines Dale's love of layering colour with the notion of stencilling. In one sense, the enamel work is the combination of the painted and the printed image. It has become another essential aspect of Dales work and he produces  many small scale enamels  in his own kiln in Suffolk.
