How it's made: 

I hammer copper into a bowl shape, forming details like the bottom and edges with specialized steel stakes and hammers. Then I fuse powdered glass to both sides of the bowl, building up many thin layers and firing each in a 1500 degree kiln.

I draw the image by hand, freestyle, directly on the bowl on a base coat of white glass using graphite and special enamel pencils and paint. The final steps are fusing clear layers of glass over the drawing, ensuring the one of a kind image is embedded in the bowl. 

Inspiration: 

This is a study for larger sculptures that explore flowers as a symbol for renewal and the ability to turn suffering into joy (like flowers blooming from compost).
