Vibrant Deco Garden

The egg is the Gift of Life and New Beginnings!
This mosaic sculpture EGG begins with a crown of glory. At its top, a palette of color and texture ready to come into form. From a place of stillness comes the movement. Brilliantly colored drizzles travel downwards, following the egg’s curved surface. It arrives and is met with the artist’s imagination as pure potential. The vibrant colors dance in the eye of the artist in her garden. She creates a radiant display of textures and shapes catching the admiring glances from onlookers. The egg is witnessed as a multi-dimensional, textural wonder, an ambitious and thoughtfully planned and executed piece of art. Over 1,000 pieces of glass have come together forming wholeness …. a joy to any viewer. A Gift of Life and new beginning - a cherished addition that tells a story.
Process:
Glass fusing is a process of stacking compatible art glass to create a design, then heating it in
a kiln to nearly 1,500 degrees for about 20 hours until it melts, merging pieces together to form
a single piece of glass. A combination of frit paintings (crushed glass) and glass sheets were broken into small pieces to create the mosaic and individual tiles. The 3+ month process stretched the artist
imagination to create tiles to “fit” the curve of the egg.
“Honoring process in our work means tuning into the nature of what is trying to be born.”
