Artist Statement:
"As a child, do you remember
the joy of opening a new box
of Crayolas? I certainly do.
I loved their fragrance and
the way the beautiful colors
vibrated, line up row by row.
I could hardly wait to use
'Magenta' or Periwinkle Blue.
Perhaps those early memories
influenced my decision to
study art.
Glass is my canvas. I apply
high fire enamels to create
non-objective or abstracted
opaque paintings. I fire the
work multiple times in a kiln
before it is completed.
I am a studio artist living in
Tallahassee, FL. I exhibited
my paintings and drawings for
many years. In a radical
departure, I decided to study
glass fusing. I initially
worked in traditional
kiln-forming glass techniques.
However, I missed painting
and the expressive experience
it provided. In 2003, I
discovered high fire
(paint-like) glass enamels and
began painting again. I enjoy
the physical act of painting
and the capricious nature of
kiln-fired glass is
intriguing.
I begin a painting by applying
the paint, or enamel, using a
variety of painting
implements. Sometimes I
inscribe thoughts and ideas in
the paint, knowing that when
the work is fired, the enamels
will flow and obscure...

Terrie Corbett's Free Artist Portfolio
Welcome to Terrie Corbett's Portfolio.
I am a painter and glass is my canvas. I am a studio artist living and working in Tallahassee, Florida. I apply vitreous enamels using brushes, palette knives, or other implements to create paintings in kiln-fired glass. I use traditional painting and drawing techniques to attain and express the imagery in my work. Glass applications such as sandblast etching may also be used to complete the painting. The work is fired in a kiln multiple times throughout the process.
There is an element of surprise when you combine the act of painting with the capricious nature of kiln-fired ... |
