Artist Barrie Brown's glass landscapes reflect serene and romantic landscapes and seascapes that are full of infused light and atmospheric softness. The unique process Barrie developed creates art pieces filled with multifaceted, layered images and shimmering light. The stand-alone sculpture piece is uniquely framed in hardwood ready for display. The actual glass piece is 16”H x 12”W x ½” D.
“A Good Place for a Nap” invites viewers into a tranquil landscape where natural elements harmonize under a soft, misty veil. The piece features towering evergreens that stand quietly against a fog-laden sky, their dark silhouettes providing a strong, grounding presence. A gently rolling hill covered in lush green grass slopes toward a serene body of water, where a single submerged tree trunk disturbs the still surface, sending delicate ripples outward. In the foreground, small clusters of pink flowers punctuate the grassy expanse, introducing a subtle splash of color amidst the calming greens and muted tones.
Crafted entirely from sheet glass and powdered glass without the use of paint, the artwork achieves its gentle, layered textures through material and light alone. This technique allows the scene to shift in mood and depth depending on the viewer’s perspective and the surrounding illumination, creating a quietly immersive experience. The composition captures a moment of peaceful retreat—a reminder to pause, reflect, and find comfort in the understated beauty of nature’s quiet corners.
