Rick L Silas's Premiere Artist Portfolio
Welcome to Rick L Silas's Portfolio.
Rick L. Silas: Inventor and patent holder on Cold Bent Glass & Shattered Laminated Glass Technologies. Rick L. Silas has been a working artist for the last twenty five years in Canada. After five years of formal art studies, in Montreal and Calgary, he abandoned traditional mediums in favor of contemporary materials. In an effort to support himself while developing this new art form, he approached large corporations such as glass and plastic suppliers to take his work in trade for their materials. This allowed him to experiment with the new chemistry of these materials. Silas’ canvas became tempered plate glass, his paints the latest in liquid polymers and spray enamels. Twenty-five plus years of experimentation and thousands of pieces of successfully executed art and commercial installations has proven him to be a master of this dynamic medium. To view a wider selection of Rick's work visit his web site www.coldbentglass.com Commissions Welcomed.
Rick is considering teaching some of his more than 80 techniques in glass and is looking for opportunities and students who would like to learn. Please email Rick at silasr@shaw.ca for more information. ... |
