COMPLETELY UNIQUE AND 100% HANDMADE IN GLASS.

'Simplistic, subtle, and visually stunning'

'ISLE OF HARRIS' is a subtle mix of swirling shades of white/blue/turquoise, with the mountains contrasted in black. The actual isle has been very carefully painted using finely ground powdered glass. The foreground is vanilla coloured glass frit set against the streaky blueness/turquoise of the sea. A tiny bit of bling has been added by scattering little sections of dichroic glass amongst the sand and rocks. Once the picture was completed it was then fused in my kiln at 1400 where all sections became one!

'ISLE OF HARRIS' took me approximately 6 hours to make. A lot of time was spent just stepping back from the picture to see how each piece of glass settled into the final composition.

I am pleased with the final picture. It has a kind of tranquil soft quality to it.

Frame: 53.5cm width x 23cm height x 2.5cm thickness.

Picture: 38.5cm width x 11.5cm height x 6mm thickness (100% glass).

I am very pleased with how this picture has turned out. The colours are rich and deep, and with it being glass it shines as you pass by it.

Hoping to get over to Harris this Summer for a bit of paddleboarding (fingers crossed).
