A selection of fired glass pieces. From top to bottom, left to right: A 6x6 fired glass plate. In the center are bits of yellow glass in a sort-of circle. That is surrounded by green coarse frit (ground glass bits) then some small bits of pink surrounding that, then blue pieces in the corners in smaller circles, and then more blue coarse grit around the edges. The high temp firing has smoothed everything out. There are decals on it of line art in various flower shapes. There is a large flower over the center section of yellow, and small flowers over the blue parts of the corners. A piece of 5x5 inch green transparent glass, with a stenciled spider painted onto it over it. The legs and body have been painted in with various colors of glass paint, including red, orange, yellow, blue, pink, turquoise, and purple. A three layered rectangular piece - the bottom layer is ocean & sky, the middle layer, the sun & seagulls, and sand on the top layer. A fired circle of clear glass about 5 inches across, with bits of transparent blue glass of varying shades in a mosaic pattern. It had a full fuse firing, and is flat and the blue bits are very smooth embedded in the clear glass - it then had a slump firing in a mold and is now a shallow dish A square "strip construction" piece. Strips of red and cream glass are turned on their edge and sandwiched together with the red and cream alternating. There are four blocks of the strips, the upper left and lower right have the strips running vertically, and the other two blocks have the strips running horizontally. This shot is from the top, and it is very smooth and shiny. An 8x8 inch piece of fired glass. The main color is a streaky blue and white opaque glass that was about 7 1/2 by 7/12 inches, broken into large chunks and placed on an 8x8 inch clear sheet, so that there is space between the broken pieces. In those gaps, it has been filled in with fine frit, which is basically very tiny pieces of glass, almost like coarse sand. The frit is light green and is transparent and the light "leaks" through it. It's in a windowsill with the sunlight coming through so the “light leak” is more apparent.
