Zest

Zest

Zest was inspired by my first-ever combination wood and glass sculpture, entitled Genesis. The inner section was a wood sculpture.

I liked the minimalized surface areas and structure. But since I never duplicate a piece, I modified the wood design and had a go at it in glass. I did enjoy this adventure of creating what I now call Small Treasures. And I will do more.

Also, I did a high polish finish on Zest instead of my traditional matte surface texture. It’s considerably more work, because I needed to sand the entire piece – including all those small intersections – three more times. But I really like the outcome. Hope you do as well.
