new glass
Normally when I read about someone getting "new glass" it's in reference to a new lens they purchased for their camera. In our case (though we do buy lenses, and love them) we're just as excited to talk about new art glass. Mark surprised me with an early Christmas present yesterday with this piece by Orfeo.




To give you some perspective, this piece is a 17" x 17" square, and the glass is about 3/4 of an inch thick. The sections where the white background shows through are actually clear.

here's a closeup...the orange makes me think of coral.



PS. In case you didn't know, Mark works for a glass tool company, and they deal with artists around the world.

About Us
      Hi! I'm Joanna, author of this journal. My husband Mark and I are photographers in Asheville, North Carolina. Most recently we collaborated on a 12 week beginner photography course, the contents of which you can find
    • here.
      • The name of our company, Tuesday's Frog, is based on an almost wordless children's book about frogs that go flying on lily pads one night. We love it because it tells a story in pictures. Cole & Harper are our children, and frequent (though not always willing) photography subjects. So here you'll find not only the story of our lives, but of those we've photographed as well. We'd love to tell your story, too!
