These pictures show an example of how I foil each piece of glass before it is soldered. The copper foil has an adhesive back. Once this is pressed around each edge (individually) I then go back over each piece with a wooden fid which smoothes out any further wrinkles. After this step has been completed. I solder each piece (individually). Then they are ready to be soldered together.
2013 will mark my 13th year working with glass. My third year in painting. I push the envelope as far as what I can create with both mediums. Good things happen when glass breaks or mistakes happen...from there more is beautifully and meaningfully revealed.
