SUE THORNE
Nature and the landscape of the Brecon Beacons and Black Mountains never fails to inspire me.
A walk in the National Park provides me with much to work with. Not least the mountain landscape, but looking and listening I hear the skylarks and see the red kites soaring in the sky. Closer to home I see garden birds, insects and plant life. Nature knows no bounds.
Once back in my garden studio I use these images to either paint on glass or make fused pictures with coloured glass or a combination of the two techniques.
I use Vitreous paint, which I mix with lavender oil. It is a traditional material used by artists from medieval times. I manipulate the paint with natural haired brushes while it is still wet. This allows me to work with texture and tone to create my image. When dry, fine detail is scratched into the surface with a needle. The glass is then fired in the kiln to fix the image. Fusing is where two layers of glass are melted together as one.
Glass art will never wear away or fade with the light, making it a perfect medium to display in a sunny place. My work will sparkle keeping the magic of the hills fresh and alive.
Please get in touch if you have any queries or if you'd like to purchase a piece of my work.
