Sunset Glass Tapestry—Changing the Direction of Glass Fusing

Design, Fabrication, Text, and Photography by David Alcala

 

A 5" x 7" fused waterside landscape created by vertically layering frit between two pieces of glass. The landscape background is developed using desired colors of frit that are poured and manipulated with a wire rod stylist into the shapes for the background, then fired in the kiln. Final details such as trees and birds are added with decals.
