A 5" x 7" fused waterside landscape created by vertically layering frit between two pieces of glass. The landscape background is developed using desired colors of frit that are poured and manipulated with a wire rod stylist into the shapes for the background, then fired in the kiln. Final details such as trees and birds are added with decals. This article was originally published on page 62 in the Summer 2012 issue of Glass Patterns Quarterly.
