"Spring Green Retro Small Platter"

Art Glass Platter

Created by Helen Rudy
Carefully chosen coordinating colors create this striking, fresh and very retro style platter. The platter uses a clear base so light can diffuse through and cast a pattern on the table. Perfect as a display piece and entirely functional. The colors are turquoise and spring green. Coordinates nicely with other pieces in the Retro series.

Lots of colored squares and rectangles of hand cut glass layered on top of each other. The glass is fired in a kiln until it becomes one single piece of glass.

After being fused the piece is then slumped into its final shape.

The piece is food safe, functional and very stunning. Looks great with food or on display as a piece of art. Each piece is lovingly handmade and unique. Exact patterning and colors may vary slightly. Signed and dated.

About this Artist

Helen Rudy

" I am interested in how colors mix and react to create depth and balance in the piece. I focus on the subtle effects light can have on the art."

Helen Rudy came to creating beautiful fused glass pieces from a non-traditional background in construction management. Her attention to color detail, layering, and saturation heralds back to her degree. Her crisp and clean designs clearly focus on the interaction of light and its effect on the glass.

Each piece of glass is measured and hand cut. By layering one color or many different colors on top of each other, a bright and bold design is created. The glass is first fired in a kiln to about 1500 degrees F to melting or fusing point. Sometimes a second firing is needed to create a shape. The glass can be in the kiln for several days before finishing.

Almost entirely self taught, Rudy attended workshops with Milon Townsend, and Lisa Voigt, attended the Pilchuck Scool of Glass to study with Alicia Lomne, and in 2011 studied casting Pate De Verre with Anna Boothe.
