Locally recycled glass

Oxides and enamels

I like this organic shape.  Each layer is wrapped around the other. It lends texture and topography.

Oxides, enamels and additives

I call these clear glass bowls "contoured" because each layer is wrapped around the other. It lends texture and topography.

This one has a application of Copper Oxide in the bottom that casts color about depending on the lighting.

Salvaged Glass can be very rewarding.

This sheet was unique - a blue tint I've never seen before.

Of course you can buy blue "Art Glass".

But this was different, surprizing, and I love it.

Enamels and oxides.

Three different molds were combined to create this unique "freeform" piece.
