I made each component of this wall piece by ladling molten glass into molds and pressing circular shapes into the hot the surface of each panel. The panels are housed in hinged steel frames to allow for the piece to be altered by the viewer. The relationship of light and glass is key to this piece as light passes through each panel and creates a tinted shadow on the wall behind with interesting details made by the circular impressions. Each panel is approximately 10" x 10" x 1". Since I work in modular form, customizing a project similar to this one is very practical. Custom choices include number, size, and color of each panel, and installation hardware.

Happy with communication & results!
I broke my wife's favorite vase, and Holly was able, on the basis of a few scraps of information, to make a replacement that catches the spirit of the original without being a knock-off. It's actually more solid than the original, and better suited to its purpose. I'm very happy with it. The only reason I took a star off on timeliness was because Holly was in the process of moving her studio at the time that I first created the project and couldn't address the project immediately. But once the proposal was made, everything happened very quickly. And in the end it worked out for the best, since I'll now be able to give the vase to my wife on her birthday in two days. So feel free to ignore that missing star.
Holly is incredible! She's talented, timely and professional. I would hire her for all of our glass needs if she had the time for us!
