Metamorphous…

March 12, 2009 · 5 Comments


Glass-drawing-d-LisaRivasThe tile to the right was created by drawing onto a glass surface that had been coated with very thin layer of colored glass powder. I drew the image by scratching into the surface with a sharp tool, I also used 2 different colors of powder glass and drew again. Once the drawing was finished it was annealed / fused in a kiln. This glass piece measures 6″ x 6″.

I then scanned the
tile and changed the colors and texture digitally.

Next will be to print this
and then do a photo transfer onto another surface.

More to come…
