Mighty Manatees

Winter 2022

A 12" x X" free-form stained glass panel with a mama manatee and her calf. A frit mixture can be fired onto the tops of the bodies to represent algae, if desired. Bubbles are then added to the top of the mama using assorted sea-colored glass nuggets and gems before completing the panel assembly. This project was constructed using the copper foil technique.
