The "Bird on a Wire" series is a reflection on moments watching birds from the studio window. "Ticker Tape" is a one of a kind hand-painted glass art piece that depicts a group of birds that have made it through a storm and the sun is returning. There are still leaves floating in the sky, like a ticker tape parade, making their way to the ground. The sunshine yellow meets the blues of the water and the verdant green then grounds this small portal with shifting light that moves through the layered glass. Made from kiln-fired glass, enamel, and synthetic materials, this piece is 6 inches by 4 inches.
