(Glass Marbles)

Collective Contemp This marble has a lot going for it. It's got a nice and deep twisted 5-star honeycomb that reveals behind it some flashy dichro. So you flip it over to see the shiny suff and there in the center of the dichro vortex is a little hidden treasure - a polished white square opal!

Nathan Miers • Glass Artist and Craftsman
Nathan has spent the last few years traveling from coast to coast in search of new inspirations for his work. Coming from a graphic arts background he was searching for a more expressive medium for his art. A few years back he had the chance to play with molten glass, instantly realizing that he found a new medium with infinite possibilities for artistic expression. Nathan's style uses colors that represent emotion. Color relationships that play on core human emotions such as Anxiety, Fear, Surprise, Disgust, Sadness and Happiness. "Emotions are the color palette from which I choose." As an artist, he prefers to create mood bending pieces that uplift and brighten the day of those who have the opportunity to view his work.
Please visit his web page at www.eyecandyarts.com for more information on his art and classes.
