Solstice Full Moon – Large Wall Piece
A blushing full moon with interesting metallics and texture awaits its new home. It is created from mixed media upon a wood substrate for easy transport and has a french cleat for easy hanging.
I create wall installations using various mixed media glass techniques. Some wall installations are created from reclaimed glass in the same manner that my vessels are created. Other wall installations are permanently mounted so that the work is easier to ship and can hang on a french cleat.
Below are several examples of wall hangings, large and small. Although they are visually similar, their methods of construction (and hanging hardware) vary greatly.
All wall installations arrive ready to hang, include installation instructions and all necessary hardware.

An experiment in techniques, this wall installation is mixed media and glass, mounted to a wood substrate and hangs via a french cleat system.

At 70″ wide by 40″ tall, this mixed media glass installation is like the largest glass piece I’ve completed to date. It’s created from multiple kiln loads of glass that were fired over the course of weeks and then mounted with mixed media, dyes and metallics on a wood substrate. Once finished and approved, the piece had to be crated and sent via box truck across the county before arriving at its final destination in Orland Park, IL. It is now displayed in a new building that is part of a Health Care Campus just outside Chicago. The coloration and design is meant to be an abstract representation of Lake Michigan.
