Looking Back at Faux Glass

Although I did not plan on the theme this week, apparently we are focused on glass. I remember seeing this pendant years ago and I thought it was made of little glass mosaic tiles. But no, it’s polymer with a resin top but it’s beautifully done, with a great color palette that jazzes up the repetition of basic geometric shapes.

The work, created some eight years ago, is by Christi Uliczny.  You can find Christi under the moniker of either Cabin Fever Clay or River Valley Design. Her recent work has moved quite a ways from this orderly geometric type of design. She’s gone quite organic in both form and color application. If you find the progression and change of an artist as fascinating as I do, you can find a timeline of Christi’s progress as an artist on her Flickr photostream as well as find her recent work in her Etsy shop or on Instagram.
