These Crystal Creations are designs hand-sculpted into clay, then filled with melted glass. We can use our existing designs and a rainbow of glass colors, or create a completely new design to any dimension (individual pieces not to exceed 17 x 21 inches). Explore the possibilities below!

A new year just started with the Ithaca Arts Trail. Come and visit artist studios in and around Ithaca, and browse the amazing variety of artists on their site: http://www.arttrail.com/ I'm participating in this event, although the Clay Decor studio is still undergoing some repairs until we are officially visitor-ready. Hopefully we will be able to swing a first Saturday at the end of Summer. :) If you want to experience art firsthand, this is the way to do it! There is an open house weekend October 6 and 7 (2012), and certain studios open the first Saturday of each month. Otherwise, you can contact the artist and make an appointment to visit their studio.
This is a juried exhibition put together by the hardworking folks at the Community Arts Partnership of Tomkins County. Also, keep in mind this Arts Trail overlaps the Cayuga Lake wine trail...I'm just saying... :) http://cayugawinetrail.com/
