How it's made: 

I hammer copper into a bowl shape, forming details like the bottom and edges with specialized steel stakes and hammers. Then I fuse powdered glass to both sides of the bowl, building up thin layers and firing each in a 1500 degree kiln.

I draw the image by hand, freestyle, directly on the bowl on a base coat of white glass using graphite and special enamel pencils and paint. The final steps are fusing clear layers of glass over the drawing, ensuring the one of a kind image is embedded in the bowl. 

 

Inspiration: 

Used by the Aztecs to treat epilepsy, the stems used as straws, and roots as a food source, the mighty Dahlia has a long history of use and beauty. With many symbolic meanings including wealth, elegance, and love, this flower can be helpful beyond simple aesthetics (though it's beloved for it's looks as well). It's considered a representation of balance between relaxation and adventure, following your own unique path, and staying kind despite life's challenges, to name a few.

 

Rainbows and wildflowers = love and equality meet curious beauty. When the grey becomes oppressive, a spark of color gives hope.
