Title: Orange Blooming
Medium: Painted Glass Sculpture
Dimensions: 13"h x 6"w

"Orange Blooming" is a sculpture that depicts a cactus. The cactus has a vibrant orange flower on top and white spines running vertically along its green body. The sculpture is uniquely constructed using layers of transparent glass panels arranged in parallel, creating a segmented, multi-dimensional effect that gives depth and volume to the cactus form. These glass layers are mounted on a rectangular wooden base, enhancing the overall presentation and stability of the piece. The combination of sharp botanical detail and modern glass layering technique creates a striking and innovative representation of the cactus.
