Product code: Artist Lawrence Ruskin Art Glass Green Peacock Free Form Hand order Blown Signed 1989
Approximate 4 in x 4.5 in. A few interior bubbles, normal with production. Gorgeous glass paperweight, signed and order dated on bottom. Looks like underwater seaweed or peacock feathers. “Starting as a collector, Lawrence's fascination with glass drove him to build his own backyard “hot glass” studio in 1982. He taught himself to blow glass, an ongoing process, which eventually led him to enroll in the Pilchuk Glass School. In 1987 he was juried into the 20th anniversary Master's class taught by Dale Chihuli and Lino Tagliapietra. This award winning glass blower works in the free form Venetian style made famous by William Morris, Rich Royal, Dale Chihuli, Martin Blank, and others. His glasswork takes its inspiration from nature for both colour and shape. Each of Lawrence's pieces uses 2 or more colours that are blended while molten to create the pattern. Once the colours are properly mixed, more clear glass is added and the piece is f ormed using mainly gravity and centrifugal force.”.
