Unique Fused Glass Wall Piece
"Leprechaun" , 2009, Fused Bullseye Glass Panel on Wood Frame, 20" x 17" x 3" This panel is an original work that I made as I was fine tuning my use of powdered colored glass fusing back in 2009. "Leprechaun" illustrates my interest in abstracting found images and discovering unintentional forms within the composition. I originally called this piece "Stick Up", until one day my daughter was looking at it and pointed out that there seemed to be the silhouette of a leprechaun on the gun. I changed the name immediately. Leprechaun is mounted in a deep wood frame for added impact and is easily installed on to vertical surfaces with a simple nail or screw.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I make handmade, kiln formed decorative art glass for commercial and home uses. I offer a wholesale line of tableware and interior lighting, as well as custom lighting, tile installations, and unique architectural elements.
I primarily use a glass making process called powder printing. An adaptation of screen printing, powder printing also employs the use of screens and photosensitive emulsion, but instead of pushing ink on to paper, I push powdered colored glass onto layers of sheet glass which is then fused together in the kiln. The glass pieces are then trimmed and mounted as tiles or set up over ceramic and metal molds and slumped into forms for lighting or tableware. I also create my own slumping molds, fabricate lighting armatures, and build my own kilns and other equipment.
