Milky Way Magic II
The North Shore has been celebrated as one of the few “Dark Skies” still remaining in the continental U.S. On a crispy, clear winter night you can witness so many stars that you can’t count!

Life Under Water
Sharon and Steve discover a whole other world just exploring under the surface of a lake, a stream or even the small pools between the rocks.

Peepers Hatching
The thousands of Spring Peepers are the first frogs chorus we hear in the early evening hours every Spring. Early morning when Sharon walks their quiet road she watches the ditches and adjoining forests wake up. Soon there are frog eggs, small clear and black masses floating. Soon they begin to have yellow green algae covering them and not long after the tiny tadpoles hatch. The algae is their first meal.

Safe & Sound
Sharon has a thing about rabbits. There are always one or two snowshoe hares hiding under the shrubs and trees or munching on the grass in the yard during the warm months. And a snowshoe to the cedars in winter exhibits hiding holes at the base in the roots of almost every old tree in the winter.

Stormy Sunset Over the Sawtooth
Watching a storm brewing over Lake Superior is amazing! Catching it during a sunset is absolutely spectacular!!!

Shen Cycle
Living in nature on the North Shore with her changing seasons directly effects an artist’s creativity. This rhythm from warm light or yang to cold dark or yin is the Shen Cycle in the Chinese healing system.
Series of 5 13.25” circles
kilnworked glass w/wood frames
$3,250.00 or separately
Spring/Wood- $675.00
Summer/Fire- $675.00 Late Summer/Earth- $850.00 Autumn/Metal- $965.00 Winter/Water- $850.00
Wood/Spring feeds Fire/Summer which turns to Earth/Autumn and over time develops Metal/Late Fall and Water/Winter which is necessary for Spring growth. Spring is a time for increased energy and new ideas. Summer is a bursting with fullness which is then balanced and brought into fruition in Late Summer. In the Fall this energy turns inward to dream and in Winter those seeds created rest in contemplation.
Autumn Birches
Dark skies to the east with the low sun in the west catching the intensity of the late autumn sun on the tree tops. Hard to capture in a photo. This glass piece must be seen with the natural light streaming through it. It’s a stunner!!!

kilnworked glass/w steel stand
$1,050.00
Bridging
Bridging was inspired by a soft winter sunset out of Sharon’s studio window- looking across the open meadows bordered by forest. It is easy to imagine the deep roots of the trees under the snow burrowing deep underground and then the trees reaching to connect with the heavens through their trunks and outstretched limbs.
11″ X 24″
kilnworked glass/w black metal frame
$995.00
Cascade Cedar
There is nothing like walking along the Cascade River in the Spring during the snow and ice melt. The loud water carves out caverns and exposes the beautiful roots of the cedars and year after year they thrive .

kilnworked glass on cradleboard
$765.00 SOLD

Since beginning glass fusing in 2001 Sharon has explored and repeatedly attempted to capture the elusive northern lights in glass. This wall piece is a fun, more abstract version.

Inspired II
Always playing with new ways to portray the northern lights in glass. This piece is yet another, more abstract version.

Night Drive North
Remember when Highway 61 had narrow shoulders hugged by the trees? Deer jumped out so often that we spoke of “running the gauntlet”. The original ink drawing for this was done in 1981.
