Contemporary fused glass by Stephanie Bowen. Designer/Maker producing architectural panels and unique fused glass art products including vessels, coasters, wall panels, jewellery, hangings and splashbacks for national and international clients.Fused Glass is an exploration of design and individuality. The artist Stephanie Bowen draws inspiration from colour, pattern, and the glass itself to create a truly unique Objet d'Art. The preparation of each piece takes time and patience to ensure perfect results after firing. Each piece starts out as a plain sheet of glass on which the artist carefully plans a design. Many different materials are used to create textures and effects within the glass. These include metals, foils, mesh, enamel powders, glass grains, oxides, gold and silver leaf, and copper wire. It is these materials that are combined on the glass surface to create the design to be fused within layers of glass.
