(2008) 16'' x 16", mirror tile, mirror lacquer, stained glass (black opaque, grey opal, blue opal, caramel alabaster), copper foil, lead solder, glass etching fluid
Well, time for a little something else. I had wanted to experiment with some glass etching fluid, so I transferred a celtic knotwork pattern on a mirror tile by stopping out the liquid with transparent foil cut with a craft knife, used the same technique on four opaque black glass circles for a spiral pattern and then assembled the overall design using traditional tiffany glass technqiue.
The knotwork pattern on the mirror is based on a design from Bradley W. Schenck. "Celtic Knotwork Borders".
Wow - und wieder einmal eine tolle Idee umgesetzt Du wagst Dich sogar an Fluss-Sauere? Oder womit hast Du das Glas geaetzt? Das Ergebnis ist jedenfalls umwerfend
Sag mal, wieviel Stunden hat Dein Tag eigentlich? Meine Schwester und ich haben schon darueber spekuliert, wie Du es schaffst - neben Deinem Job - so ungeheuer viele, bis ins letzte Detail durchdachte Arbeiten tatsaechlich umzusetzen. (Wir haben staendig das Gefuehl, nie genug Zeit zur Verfuegung zu haben)
Ich ziehe jedenfalls den Hut - auch fuer alle Arbeiten, die bisher unkommentiert waren meinerseits - Du bringst mich oft so zum Staunen, dass mir die Worte fehlen... bitte nimm es als Kompliment
wow, thats etching on the corners? it looks as if it's just very carefully fused glass! lovely! i dint know that etching colored glass would get that result. how will you hang it, or are you going to add to it?

I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
I'm a lover of visual impacts. I like brilliant colors and shapes. And I decided to collect a whole stack of deviations that reflect that taste. These pieces showcased below deserve every bit of publicity you can give them. x)P
