Vitrifications

Website: http://www.vitrifications.com

Doris’ fascination with glass became a serious creative pursuit in this millennium. Training at Kari Minnick Art Glass Studio and other venues in the Washington DC area soon led her to explore the frontiers of working in warm glass. Her work is often inspired by the glory and splendor of nature--its innumerable acts of random beauty. She likes to vitrify leaves in their eternal tumble between earth and sky, or work with metal inclusions, especially silver and gold leaf. She rejoices in the wonderful luminosity of glass and indulges in color—unabashedly… Working in fused glass is her favorite form of meditation.

Her work has found strong resonance in juried shows and private collections. She shows regularly at the Art League, Torpedo Factory, Alexandria VA, where she has been a member since 2004. Commissions are always welcome.
