Recently I took another class with the wonderful Tina Van Pelt of Artist on the Avenue. The photo above is what I brought home. On the top left piece is silver foil on white reactive glass. The yellow color in the pendant is all from the chemical reaction of the foil with the glass. The sea themed piece with the little seahorse is created from copper foil; the color of the copper deepens to the deep red in the kiln. The lower left piece is a simple piece of dichromatic glass fused with a red background. The lower left is another fused glass face. I am still working with a fused glass face from last year to make a embroidered, beaded stump doll which I hope to have done in the next month or so.

Fused Glass Workshop
Hi, I wanted to share a few pieces I made at my friend Tina's Fused Glass Workshop. http://www.profusionsofglass.com/ I was particularily excited about trying to make a couple of face masks or plates to sew on dolls. The faces are not quite what I envisioned but I am pleased. Fused glass is all about going with the flow.
I really like how the pieces with the copper foil turned out. The tree is a powerful personal symbol for me, the plant lover that I am. The heart is another powerful personal symbol. I really like the shape the pendant turned into. As usual my images are copywrited.
