From the back cover:
"Leslie Perlis' art glass creation have been delighting both
public and private spaces for more than 25 years. The collection
of images in this book is a selected overview form her portfolio
of work. You will find over 65 color photographs, 43 detailed
line drawings, and 15 grayscale images chronicling her diverse
styles."
"Much of Leslie's work is fabricated in traditional lead
or foil technique, but she likes to add details using blown, etched,
painted and fused glass components. Leslie takes her inspiration
from the ocean in her signature 'sea-form' pieces as she explores
the relationship of bold flowing curves, stark straight lines,
and bright energetic colors to produce an exuberant visual experience.
Her recent work has found her combining fused glass, metal and
wood to create unique sculptures. Her commitment to artistic excellence
while pushing the technical envelope in evidence throughout this
collection."
" this book will inspire and excite the creative spirit in everyone who enjoys and appreciates elegant glass with and exceptional vision." |
