Canyon Song

CANYON SONG

Penetration from the top

Canyon Song was my second attempt at running a penetration from top to bottom. I added the further challenge of a long, sharp, twisting, unsupported leg structure. I feel the effect of both features is quite dramatic.

Arizona inspired

The color and shape remind me of pictures I’ve seen of the canyon lands in Arizona. I must see that someday – and envision myself standing inside one of my own sculptures. Private collectors in Santa Fe, NM, added Canyon Song to their major glass collection. It is a deep honor to be included in such a prestigious and notable environment.
