12"sq.- Pattern Bar and strip built techniques

Complex Pattern Bar

10"x12" - Ghost Dancers - complex pattern bar

This award winning art glass piece is an example of a  Complex Pattern Bar.   We first spent weeks working on the design.  Then, we cut glass cut to design specs.  Next, the cut glass is layered into a contained rectangle  in our kiln and fired.  The resulting glass brick was then sliced into 8 book-matched slices.  The slices were then arranged into the resulting design and fused together.  Notice that while some of pattern is the same, we also created some parts that changes in the pattern.  This is very difficult to do and why we spend weeks on the initial design.
