All Together Now! Sing Sing Sing
Siobhan loves the collaborative process with her clients that allows her to integrate client suggestions and tastes into the design process. She is inspired by the challenge of generating depth and full dimensional imagery when translating a picture or idea into the medium of glass. Skilled dissection of form and use of colour and texture creates the illusion of depth and allows movement to emerge from the two dimensional surface.
Sunflower
A whimsical piece, that developed almost of it's own accord, the final product became a dynamic favorite of the artist. Siobhan put together glass and textures that she normally would not combine and through this process her craft has evolved.

Ship
Throughout history people of all cultures have been drawn to water and water imagery. The Bluenose was a commissioned piece where in the development process the water took on a life of it's own, with different textures and tones. "Sponging" the solder to creates the effect of splashing waves.

Gargoyles
Gargoyles are protectors by design and in myth. This piece was inspired by Siobhan’s daughter’s love of them. The glass that used in the body has so much texture and colour, when held up to the light it comes to life. Siobhan used blue for the eye instead of red so people wouldn’t think my little protector was “evil”.
