Kiln-Formed Glass Art:
A Modern Approach to an Ancient Art Form
Michele, with her work Siuslaw Sunshower |
Michele R. Gutlove is an architect and an artist. As an architect, she recognizes the power of light to shape space and the power of glass to shape light. As a watercolor painter, she has a passion for the color, the transparency, and the depth inherent in the medium. For Michele, glass is like “three-dimensional watercolors.”
Glass has, historically, been used as an architectural material. Experimenting with new possibilities while embracing its history, Michele creates art glass for modern architectural applications. Michele creates commissioned pieces for a variety of environments and clients including:
-
Religious/Spiritual
-
Institutional
-
Residential
-
Commercial
To view representative works, visit the Gallery.
