Abundance of Kilnformed Work: Mosaik and Singular Series

Abundance of Kilnformed Work: Mosaik and Singular Series

Explorations in iridised surfaces and the play of transmitted and reflected light are delisciously evident in the Mosaik and Singular Series. The glow of color from tranmitted light and the rich prismatic colors of reflected light from an iridised surface lend this contemporary work it's dramatic appeal.

Although the work is more formal in design than either the Whimsies or the Fluvial Series, a loose and playful feel is still evident in the design, color and line of these pieces. The process of composing and firing the work is sheer pleasure and I feel that pleasure reads loud and clear in the work itself. Imbibe.

Abundance of Kilnformed Work: Whimsies and Fluvial Series

Abundance of Kilnformed Work: Whimsies and Fluvial Series

This vibrant kilnformed work is about color, light and movement. It's about an interplay between transparecy and opacity. How color is perceived by the eye as it interacts through the glass in reflected or transmitted light. This work contains strong design and smart color engaged in a playful and joyful jumble dance.

The 'Whimsies', such as "Do You Love Me..." contain a dance of color and line with scale and form and a playful division of space. The 'Fluvial' Series, as seen in "Confluence" are a more quiet and elegant dance with flowing color that travels through a piece like a river cuts a line through the Earth. Enjoy the ride.

Abundance of Kilnformed Work: Windows

Abundance of Kilnformed Work: Windows

Uniquely Fused. The Window Series is inspired by the tradition of Arts and Crafts geometric styling...but I've added a playful twist. Colorful, vibrant and layer upon layer of relief and texture make these pieces sing.

Beautiful work coming out of Utah
Cynthia, I was very inspired and very much admired your work. I am a stained glass artist beginning to do more and more kiln and flame work. I enjoy knowing of others in Utah who are working artists. The Glass Art Guild is a great place to network as well. Do you offer classes or workshops? I would love some details. I will continue to watch for you work.
