Inspiration: riptides and waves of the ocean 

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 is kilnformed into a shape to support the sculpture with coldworking to ensure the bottom is level and sturdy. 

Dimensions: 10.75" wide x 12.75" tall x 4" 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.
