Painting with Glass Powders

My second assignment in Narcissus Quagliata's Painting with Glass Masterclass, was to move from sketching with glass to creating a glass painting.

I chose to create a glass art piece depicting a wildfire's aftermath. It can be a powerful way to express the impact of nature. By using various materials and techniques such as fusing glass powders, I worked to capture the essence of the scorched landscape that follows. NQ's critique included "good use of a color palette .... very atmospheric."

Incorporating vibrant colors reminiscent of fire and charred textures can evoke the intensity of the fire. The final glass art can serve as a reminder of the destructive force of wildfires on our environment.
