Description
This is a Leaded glass window hanger, bordered with segments of blues & greens and the central area is double plated with Iridescent & textural glass. The image is a tree, with the body painted & fired in tracing black at 650 degrees, and the foliage area engraved on the reverse of the top layer.
<br />Under different lights and angles the foliage appears at varying intensities.
<br />This is part of the collection I have been working on for the last couple months. Mostly focused on bamboo imagery and pine tree's. The idea occurred to me and this was the first attempt at what I have in mind. I like to make each item different and progress an idea to the next stage, not simply make many of the same. The ultimate goal is there shall be a continual progression of ideas in my glass work, experimenting with ideas & trails with new concepts.
