End of Term

This is one of my last flameworking projects for the semester. It's lampworked glass on muslin pillows. 2009

Petersburg!

My class just had an all glass show in Petersburg. Here are some of my pieces from the show...

Hmm

I really love newsprint. I collected a number of objects that were on the ground while at Slaughterama on Belle Isle. I drew all of them and turned it into a pattern. This was the result.
2008. Newsprint, Tracing Paper

Baby Doll

This baby doll was one of my first glass castings from 2008. The body is made out of muslin that I hand sewed together.
She (I decided it was a girl) now resides in my kitchen in between the rice and sugar jars...

Hands!

Because of the tactile nature of my work I have always been fascinated with hands. This is a photo series I created in 2008. All of them are displayed together but I included a few closeups.

Beginnings

I have been working a lot with metal and glass within the past year, but have not limited my materials to solely those two. I like to use glass and other materials as a way of creating what I call "small-scale sculpture." I am still in school and am learning different techniques that I hope will give way to an even bigger and better body of work. For now I have these pieces but will keep adding as I continue to create.
