Not to worry this wonder woman (? ) is protected!

I gave myself 10 minutes to play yesterday to relieve the stress of mountains of paperwork. Sneak peek soon to come.

Open hearted

Superheroes in love

Sometimes things just aren't working, I was working on a piece for me while I awaited the next job...and I think I over thought it so it failed....
But I hate wasting materials And I need to not take myself so seriously so I re-did the failed piece.

Young superheroes in love.

Layering

The Experiment continues,

two layers of glass with paint and glass frit on all 4 sides then fused together and this is what you get!

A new commission starts tomorrow so only one more day to play!

Conversation

I am interested in pattern, layering, transparency and storytelling

I love the speed of glass fusing... Painting, layering and firing...trying to get to the answer to the question... And never quite getting there.




I like how glass changes depending on what is behind it.


I am a person of few words, I have always felt uncomfortable with language, either verbal or written. Yet I love language, I love to listen and to read. My voice comes out mostly in my work, it is often laced with metaphors and illusions but it is also straight forward.

Huipil memories

Long ago I used to live in Oaxaca, Mexico...

I am enjoying these little simple exercises in line drawing on glass- no thinking, no pre-planning, no erasing and no judging...

It's the texture!

It's something about glass....

I am not certain why I can't just paint on canvas or draw on paper

Instead I need the alchemy of glass, it's more expensive, it takes more time and sometimes it explodes...

still at it/ back at it!

After a lovely week in Northern Minnesota where it still snows...
I am home mostly doing paper work but trying to squeeze in a little art work,
these are small glass tiles 5 x 4. I so wish it was not so difficult to shoot glass...grrr to much glare!

More fun with texture and pattern!
