Striking colorful fused glass sculpture. Lots of colored squares, using a mix or transparent and opaque hand cut glass layered on top of each other. The glass is fired in a kiln to 1500 degrees until it becomes one single piece of glass.

The Sentinel uses clear glass as the base and thus allows light to transmit through the colored glass. The Sentinel looks stunning on a window sill or placed where there is good back lighting. The piece will glow in light or dark locations. Each Sentinel is signed and no two pieces are the same.

Includes custom made black powder coated stand.

" 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.

Beautiful glowing colors

I would give this 5 stars except it didn't fit into the metal frame very easily--too tight--I was afraid it was going to break while placing it. Once place in the frame it deserves 5 stars!
