Summer Tide

The sculpture was created using a multistep process.
Small pieces of glass were fused in a kiln, forming the visual patterns of color.
The resulting form was removed and sand blasted, to to create soft curves and reveal caverns and tunnels within it.
It was, then, returned to the kiln with additional glass, melted and draped again to enhance its shape and surface.

The finished piece is the product of 6 or more repetitions of this process,and is created as a tribute to the memories and spirit of the shore.
