Featured Artist: Meera Singh

Fused Glass:

Fusing glass offers me the authenticity I desire of painting and the weight and transparency I love in glass. My pieces are transparent canvases, worked with metal, mixed media, and with etched or painted strokes to produce luminous and multi-dimensional effects.
