Laura Murphy, friend, professor & extraordinary fiber artist, has been working for several years on opening her gallery. When she asked me to design a piece for the new space I jumped at the chance. The name of her gallery brought immediately to mind lattices & greenery & she said that fit her vision as well, if I could incorporate images of her logo into the whole. This is the final drawing agreed upon. She loved the Luna Moth!
I have decided to show the actual process from drawing through cutting, foiling, soldering & framing on this project.
The completed piece was successfully installed just prior to Christmas ’09 and the gallery opening was great!
In trade for my glass work I will receive a hand crafted piece of wearable art from a true master!
