The Design Process for 'Painting with Light - A Fusing Technique'
Conceptual designs are developed in Illustrator. The Images can be pre-designed, and other times they evolve out of a response to the glass itself.
The design becomes the template. With glass, the substrate IS the image. The artwork is made by assembling sometimes hundreds of small, custom-cut pieces of sheet glass, combined with glass powders known as frit, and melting them all together in the kiln to form an image. The work becomes a response to what these pieces are “suggesting.” Tim works in an abstract figurative language, with a formal approach to composition and color, ranging from realism to abstraction. Lighting of fine arts pieces will be covered. Tim specializes in custom framing and LED lighting.
Tim Carey Studio (Established 2018) is a full-service glass fusing studio in Los Angeles, Ca. Tim began his journey with glass as a stained glass window designer in 2003 and transitioned to fused glass in 2014 upon completion of the Resurrection Window in Leawood, Kansas.
