Rest of the FEMINIQUE story
Glass artist, Harry Pollitt, describes the surprises unveiled by Feminique, his kiln cast glass sculpture. And shares the consequences of a disastrous crack he caused to his own piece.
Feminique
Pale Cobalt Blue and Purple colors intermingle throughout the sweep and curves of this 1′-9″ tall cast glass sculpture by Harry Pollitt.
Awakening
Awakening, re-awakened. Taking a higher than usual risk, I re-sculpted the original version of this finished cast glass piece. Now that it’s completed and I’ve relaxed…I’m pleased with the outcome.
Transcendence
Despite the years, my enormous effort and, at times agony, I ask “Where did you come from?” I recognize my newest glass sculpture would not exist without me. Yet, I know fully, it is detached from me. It is its own entity. Come meet Transcendence.
Fluid Dynamics
Fluid Dynamics dynamically showcased Three or so months ago, a designer presented Fluid Dynamics to a client. They loved it. Recently, an incredible, dramatic, dynamic (How else can I express it?) set of images arrived. I am floored, honored and appreciative of the collaboration between designer and collector that enables me to share this showcase …
GP-2
A spiral cast glass sculpture with a quizzical name, GP-2 is a commission piece with a challenging request from the Collector. Progress images included.
Entwined
An early-morning wake up vision of intersecting and undulating lines becomes a 13″-high Pollitt glass sculpture that earns the title Entwined. Come see why!
2018 a typical year
New works. Collected works. New adventures. Some disappointments. And new directions. An engaging recall of Harry’s 2018 studio time.
Pollitt’s unsurpassable Artist Residency at Buffalo Creek
My unsurpassable Artist Residency at Buffalo Creek Art Center in Nevada last summer spoiled me forever! Come take a peek of my six-week home on the 34-acre property snuggled against the Sierra Nevada mountains, squirreled away in comfy accommodations, working uninterrupted in a fabulous sculpture studio. And tell me if you think I did good work.
E-Ride learning curves in glass.
Climbing right turns. Tumbling loops. Outside banking descents. It’s a Pollitt Small Treasure called E-Ride. It’s a roller coaster path in kiln cast, fuchsia-colored glass.
Mainsail glass billows in the wind.
As though billowed by the wind, Mainsail races to join Pollitt Small Treasures ensemble. An apricot-colored glass sculpture, the “mast” reaches 1′-2” high, with luminosity that looks like it comes from the sun.
Aura
A hyacinth color and dark edging produced by natural light gives this Pollitt Small Treasure the look of an aura. The 12” x 4”dia glass sculpture delivers quiet, but powerful drama.
Green Piece
Pollitt Small Treasures is joined by Green Piece, an undulating, sweeping 1′-2″ high x 4″ diameter glass sculpture. Complexity of the design is simplified by a seldom-used Pollitt medium polish finish. Its kiln cast color is emerald green.
Fantasia
Gentle curves in pale copper blue glass twist unexpectedly – and thus define sculptor Harry Pollitt’s distinctive style. Named Fantasia, the 1′-3″ sculpture joins the Pollitt Small Treasures ensemble.
Captiva
Dichroic glass is expected to change color in different light. Captiva, a new sculpture by Harry Pollitt, even surprised the artist with its dramatic color change. Come see his Surprising Small Treasure.
