Dimensional Colors features original enamel art and styles: including, decorative switch plate covers, decorative outlet covers, decorative tile and art pendants. The enameling is handcrafted by the artist, but he switch plate covers are UV rated, machine stamped copper. The complex enamel art has a hand painted look, but is actually executed with powder form enamels, not vitreous. I have developed techniques for controlling the enamels and applying colors with great accuracy, and by layering the enamels, complex images and colors are achieved. By careful observation as to the effects of: firing time, temperature and color combinations, I have developed unique looks. There are two different looks that can be achieved, one uses all transparent color enamels, the other uses an opaque color enamel to start. Colors that are rich and lustrous, like crystals, are achieved when using all transparent enamels (shown right and below). When starting witn an opaque base the result is a ceramic look with brighter more vivid colors than with the transparents (shown on the About page). I carry a wide selection of less complex styles (and less expensive) shown on the Styles page. You and your home can benefit from a distinctive item that cannot be found anywhere else. With my quality, heirloom enamel items, you can bring another dimension to your home; enhance your surroundings with these decorative switch plates and tile; don't just use your switchplates, experience them. Yes, there is also a tactile experience, as the image creates a rise, or ripples, that are created by the depth of color; with the opaque enamel, the art can be felt like braille. The switch plate screws are enameled to blend in. I also offer custom switch plates and tile, as the colors are layered, most colors can be matched, or another tone of the color can be created. These decorative switch plate covers and enamel tile are great as unique house warming gifts. UV rated, machine stamped solid copper switchplates are used. Switch plate cover sizes go up to the quad gang size, outlets, GFI's, combination switchplates (only available for oversize plates) and decora switch plate cover (rocker switch plate style). Oversize switch plates are also available in most sizes.

There are many different looks for the decorative handmade switch plate cover and decorative tile shown at Dimensional Colors. The art switchplates are represented on seperate pages by size: single, double and triple switch plate size, as each of these are one-of-a-kind handmade switch plates.
Also available are a variety of amorphous type designs shown on the Styles page; these are less elaborate than the enamel art switch plates and have flowing designs with a more classic look. The Styles page shows only single switch plates, from which any switchplate size and configuration, or tile can be ordered. There are many switch plate colors and styles that are not shown on this web site; including a full line of single tone colors for a simpler but rich and refined look. If your wall plate cover needs are not shown, email a description, and we'll see what I can come up with for you. Email for custom switch plate covers and custom color inquiries.
The best way to see my full selection of decorative switch plate covers, enamel tile and art pendants is to visit me near Sequim, Washington, at the Port Townsend Farmers Market; open April through mid December, every Sat (except May 21 for the Rhody Parade) from nine am until two pm (10 - 1 Nov & Dec). Thanks for making it this far, it does ramble a bit.
