STARFISH + KELP - 12 x 6 glass

STARFISH + KELP 12" x 6" glass with a  brushed silver frame etched, blasted, gold leaf + paint $475 ©Susan E. Roden + Nancy Arthur-McGehee So I'm still playing here with my buddy Nancy. We created Starfish + Kelp which is one of the few remaining pieces  from our former exhibit. She etched and blasted the glass, whereas I  painted the reverse of the pane with acrylics  and then applied gold leaf. The piece has incredible depth from an added bottom layer of a mirror. What truly made the project fun, was the unknown factor.  After a discussion of subject matter, one would take  the piece to start off and create an image. Then in turn, hand  it over to the other to finish off.  

THE JOY OF COLLABORATION!

ANGEL* Sold - Private Collector 8" square glass, pencil + paint Detail of collaborative piece by Susan Roden + Nancy Arthur-McGehee Do you admire greatly  another Artist? Wonder  how in the world they  do what they do?  Well by embracing some  collaboration you will see  new personal growth and direction, as well as deepened friendships.  Nancy Arthur-McGehee  is  not only my friend, but an  incredible artist! She etches   glass, is a lapidary, and a scientific illustrator. Some time ago she informed  me that one could paint and  draw onto glass. Pastels,  pencils + paint - amazing!  Out came our pencils to  schedule some play-dates,  where we both got to  experience the others medium.  Crab Decanter ©Nancy Arthur-McGehee Etched + blasted glass decanter And two very successful art...
