Lucy Paradise Glass Coasters

Lucy Paradise Glass Coasters

 
4″ x 4″ Set of four handmade fused glass coasters.

A great holiday gift idea from Kuivato Glass Gallery. Each set of fused glass coasters is designed and created by a local Sedona artist, Lucy Paradise. Fused glass was first mastered by Egyptian chemists in 2000 B.C. It is created by slowly heating compatible glass to approximately 1500 degrees where it liquefies and fuses together. Not only are the coasters an original piece of artwork, but they are functional as well. Lucy’s coasters are the ideal gift for anyone with an appreciation for art, even those who seem to have everything.

Patchwork Tapestry – Harvest

34”x9.5” Fabric, cloth fragments
 Hand-sewn three dimensional fabric collage depicting a harvest.

A great holiday gift idea from El Picaflor. The term “arpillera” means a rough, course fabric.  It derives from an old Chilean tradition of using old remnants of fabric to make hand-sewn appliqués. These patchwork tapestries are made by a co-op of women in Peru and they tell stories of life. This one shows the typical Andean harvest.  Variations in color and textures are natural to this item and make it unique. Hanger not included.

Before The Wheel

Sedona Artist Erin Lofton
A great holiday gift idea from Verdigris Gallery. Collaged texture mediums with inks, pencil & powders on stretched cotton canvas. This is a painting about our ancestors and their dreams.
