This grouping is crafted to capture the beauty of sunlight trickling through the trees onto moss covered stones that have sat creekside for years as their furry carpet developed. Each glass stone and cairn is individually formed and fused together in flame. After shaping the glass is annealed, which is a slow cooling process that relieves stresses in the glass, they are ground to assure a stable bottom and finally etched to create the stone like satin finish. The beautiful translucent colors will show at their best with lots of ambient light or directional back lighting. To maintain their beauty they my be simply dusted or carefully rinsed in lukewarm water then thoroughly dried. This particular grouping may be arranged to your liking. Dimensions refer to the trio when displayed as shown.

Melanie Guernsey-Leppla

"My years working with glass have been a continual exploration inspired both by nature and by the vitreous material itself. "

Whether she is working in the studio with an occasional stray dragonfly, gardening, walking by the river, or traveling, glass artist Melanie Guernsey-Leppla finds inspiration in her observations of the intricacies of nature and her surroundings.

When something of particular interest strikes the artist, she asks herself the simple question, "what if?" and tries to discern how the qualities of the glass would work with the idea. By allowing herself the artistic liberty to try something new based on her own caprice, she often finds herself engaged in new and exciting series of work.

Melanie Guernsey-Leppla has been working professionally with glass since graduating from Rochester Institute of Technology with a BFA in 1986. Her professional career includes shows internationally as well as across the United States. Honors include two fellowship grants from The Creative Glass Center of America and a fellowship grant from the New Jersey Council for the Arts. Her work is included in the Museum of American Craft and the Museum of American Glass as well as numerous important private collections.
