Bike Ride in Glass Series

This series of cast glass images were created using bicycle parts.  The glass sketches capture my interest in the play of light and shadow upon the road, nature always composing itself anew, each moment. For questions or to place an order contact Cyndi Strid.

Bird in a Box Series

This series was designed to illuminate some of our favorite local bird and butterfly species of the Northwest that are now designated as endangered or species of concern.  The images are drawn with powdered glass and put in the searing hot kiln to fuse, multiple times.  The glass images are displayed in hand crafted boxes, some of which are light boxes. For questions or to place an order contact Cyndi Strid.

Explorations in Glass Series

My technical work with glass moves between “sketching” with glass bits, and pulled stringer, to developing molds from clay which eventually are cast into class. The images explore our spiritual relationship to the natural world and the material world.  Boxes reference the hidden, secrets, and our dreams, connecting with the power of birds, animals and the celestial to inspire us as human beings. For questions or to place an order contact Cyndi Strid.
