Photographs of flowers frozen in thin slabs of ice, Justus and Helen Schlichting have perfected into an art medium. Forever, their flowers dwell in a dynamic setting more alive than those found in any book of biological specimens. On this art glass lamp, I display their frozen Iceland Poppy. Expressing the poppy petals along with the swarm of bubbles swept me into their creative stream.
The petals are show in the translucent powder material called “soft candy red.” Petals are predominantly a translucent layer while shaded areas are a mixture of red with holographic black. Patterns of eyelets hint at the bubbles. They display either clear glass or the silver layer underlying the red. The central stamen is shown in orange. A matte white backdrop including patterns of eyelets suggests a frozen pond.
Altogether, this art glass lamp portrays a bold and elegant abstraction. It has powerful appeal in dim light when it broadcasts a riot of colors and patterns.

She is the ancient Greek goddess of crossroads, magic, witchcraft, the moon and the night. The cylindrical form of my unique glass lamp enabled me to transform two halves of her face into the depiction of one single face. Which way is she looking? Crossroads seemed an apt association for Hecate.
Hecate’s hair, rendered in cocoa bronze, displays a gold headband amongst blue and translucent red flowers. The gold ear dangle from her right ear becomes tears flowing from her left eye. She floats above a background in polar white, tinseled with a scattering of Klimt-like surrealistic doodles.

During the 17th century, landscape painter Ogata Korin created his iconic renderings of a field of irises. Copied innumerably, it appears on folding screens and fans. Here it encircles my powder coated glass lamp. See if you can find where Korin’s two-dimensional creation joins itself.
This cascading array of irises conveys the tranquil setting of an idyllic garden. Sprouting in a translucent gold field, irises are rendered in a vibrant shade of dark violet along with a transparent teal. On gold flower stalks they display amongst dark green and transparent pale green leaves.

A Japanese print depicting fireflies shimmering amid bamboo stalks and leaves inspired this lamp. In a gold field under a dark blue evening sky, the leaves and stems project as translucent teal streaks and the swarm of fireflies as half-moon dots. This lamp conveys the charm of a vibrant, natural setting.

My grandchild asked, “Where do stars come from?” Star Birth is my response. Glistening in a light blue base, stars begin as bright sparkles in clear glass. When evening becomes a red sunset, these sparkles rise and join with each other. From there, they ascend into a black night sky as full-grown stars. Here they shine for billions of years.
