One of my inspirations


Inukshuk

- pronounced(In-ook-shook) is a stone monument erected in the image of humans. One of their purposes was to serve as a directional marker in the harsh Arctic environment. They were a tool of survival and a symbol of safety, hope and friendship. Each stone is a separate entity, yet each supports and is supported by, the one above and the one below it. Its strength lies in its unity. Its significance comes from its meaning as a whole. The Inukshuk reminds us of our interdependent responsibilities to the land, and to direct a better way for all of us tomorrow.

New Line of Tiles and Art....


"Images"

Incorporating similar concepts to litho print making, we are able to print on the glass with glass powders. Then we take it to a new level with layers and colors. Think of the possibilities: family photos, historical prints, artwork, business prints and logo's.



What is Glass Fusion?

It is an art process using specialty handmade art glass.

 Glass pieces are hand cut and layered in multiple levels and fired in a kiln.

This creates intricate designs in a fused solid tempered piece.

Unlike stained glass, there is no lead or soldier to leak into your home.

Art pieces can be floor or wall tiles, windows, door inserts, cabinet inserts, light fixtures, dishes, accessories and wall sculptures.

The possibilities in glass fusion are endless...
