Artwork Description:
Glass Book Series. Cast, fused, slumped glass. Fired-on linework glazed with oil/resin. Dried/preserved roses mounted in glass beveled box. This piece was designed with my son, Greg Stone, who is a professor at Arizona State University. It is his poem: The dry rustle of dead roses, - like a chime they sound. - Gentle, like a gift wrapped in crumpled paper - Weary they stand. - Heads hung with the weight of the past, like a locket. (Or a drowned man's stone.)
