Fused Glass by Lizbeth Harper

I am fascinated by the whole process of fusing glass. Opening the kiln after the glass has been fired reveals a treasure. The glass has transitions from a raw edged, cold feeling piece to something soft, sensuous and vibrantly colored.

Currently, I am happily exploring the may possibilities fused glass offers. My glass wall art mounted on different metals creates a reflective piece that is contemporary and striking. Each design, never preconceived, reveals a unique play between form and color. As I work on the piece, I try to let the glass "speak to me" and move in a direction that is both harmonious and balanced. Creatively, I find each piece a new and stimulating adventure.
