ALL THE COLORS OF SKY AND WATER

The light on the sea and the colors of the trees change every day. The homeowners wanted to frame this window with organic greens and blues that would echo the shifting tones of nature. The idea was for the tiles on either side to be like water flowing down, then splashing and spreading out at the bottom. And yes, one of the tiles on the bottom did come out of the kiln with an odd little face on it. Nothing I created — just a small joke from the kiln gods. There were other available tiles, but the owners wanted the face to be part of the installation. A sort of naiad, perhaps.
