eBay My World: gravediggerbob( 634)

I am an artist, both painter & sculptor. I have worked as a glass designer (sculptor, revival reverse painting Handel / Pairpoint style, cameo glass) years ago for both Fenton Art Glass & Pilgrim Glass. I also do murals & various mediums.

I enjoy offering unusual antiques & vintage collectibles. Occassionally I will offer my artwork. On rare occasions you will find offerings of collectors glass that I have painted. Sometimes (RARELY) I will offer a reverse painted lamp. These are never EVER production pieces, many taking months & multiple firings to complete. I take great pride in precision, attention to detail. & artistic integrity with my artwork. All glass painting is rendered in true glass paint; I grind my own pigments that are combined with oils & finely crushed glass that are fired at extremely high temperatures resulting in the paint bonding with the glass. The end result is the painting actually becomes part of the glass piece & are there forever.

Artwork, reading, & study.
