Title: Over Sand Dunes
Medium: Painted Glass Sculpture
Dimensions: 10"h x 8"w
"Over Sand Dunes" depicts a highly detailed, three-dimensional representation of a cactus, painted on a series of transparent glass panes. Each pane contributes to the depth and dimension of the cactus, which is largely green with orange spines, and is crowned by white bloom formations at its top. The glass panes are arranged in a manner that creates a layered effect, giving a sense of depth and realism. The entire piece is mounted on a sturdy wooden base, which provides balance and contrast to the delicate glass structure. The cactus appears realistic and vibrant, with meticulous attention paid to its texture and color, capturing the essence of this natural form in a modern and striking visual presentation.
