Lisa Poulson-Schneider has been working with glass since 1997, when she began making stained glass windows for her ca. 1839 house in Ann Arbor, MI. She then began working with kilnformed glass in 2004.
After moving to Charlevoix, MI, she operates a low-volume studio in her Charlevoix home. She predominantly makes one-of-a-kind pieces and loves to experiment with glass.
Each frog above is presented as floating in its own block of water, with its head (and sometimes feet) protruding from the ‘water’. Partial images are painted with enamel, mica powders, or porcelain glaze onto 10 individual layers of Wissmach COE 96 Crystal Clear sheet glass. The image on each layer of glass is a ‘slice’ of a frog – when the layers are assembled together, they form a three-dimensional image. The parts of the frogs protruding from the water are made of enameled cast glass.
