From Afar

From Afar

Living near the ocean, we are always seeing and hearing of stories of people who have either found a message in a bottle or have had one of their messages found on the other side of the Atlantic.  Sometimes it takes years before they are discovered.  They always make for interesting stories.  This inspired me to make this piece.

It is mostly vitreous and stained glass.  There is some smalti in there as well as some found objects.  The bottle has a message in it too, but I’m not saying what it is.

The pieces is 24 x 18 in. ( 61 x 46 cm.) and it is currently available.
