InspirationThis sparkling glass sculpture is inspired by the need for heat - the warmth of the fire in the fireplace on a winter night or the warmth of the sun in the summer (maybe I'm just dreaming of more warmth after our recent snow...).

Artistic Process:  Designing, cutting  and firing together various dichroic glass* with clear glass on top to create depth.  Then it was formed into a wavy format. 

The glass stand was fired to a thickness with a matching design and the sculpture was epoxied to the base with rubber pads on the bottom.   

Dimensions: 5" wide x 11" tall x 5" deep

  • Dichroic glass - Thin layers of metallic oxides, such as titanium, silicon, and magnesium are deposited upon the surface of the glass in a high temperature, vacuum furnace. This creates a brilliant coating on the glass that displays more than one color, especially when viewed from different angles.
