Painting with Glass Powders

My second assignment in the Painting with Glass Masterclass, Vol III 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.


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.
