Kiln-Cast Glass Art Tiles
My first group of kiln-cast glass art tiles are available now. These are solid glass tiles which can be used architecturally in a tiled wall or displayed on a stand as art.
Kiln casting is a lost wax process. Each tile is first sculpted in clay, then I make a silicon rubber mold so it can be cast in wax. Then I make a refractory mold so the tile can be cast in glass. The kiln fires them for about two days. Its a detailed process with many more steps than you would want to read about. I like to let the work speak for itself.
Contact me for prices.
Its exciting to finally have a glass kiln in my own studio. (coming soon: small sculptures and recycled glass!)
