Handmade Antiqued Mirrors
I have been crafting, sewing, painting, and drawing for over 25 years. Most of my art education has been through the school of trial and error. I love vintage, cottage, French country, and shabby chic home décor and have a special fondness for gilded glass, mercury glass, and mirrors. The reflective properties of silvery glass against a flickering candlelight are simply irresistible!
Inspired by vintage mirrors and the centuries old reverse glass gilding technique called verre eglomise, my handmade antiqued mirror art pieces are hand painted in a reverse painting technique and then hand mirrored and hand distressed using modern media and technique to resemble those wonderful old vintage oxidized mirrors. Original and appropriated images are used to create transformative designs. The surface of the glass is clean and smooth to the touch.
My mirrors are surrounded by wooden frames that I hand paint, ink, crackle, and distress. For added sparkle, some pieces feature hand glittered elements in luscious colors and may be adorned with twinkling rhinestones or elegant pearlescent bling. Each piece is brought to you at an affordable price.
My mirrors bring a warmth into your home and their compact size allow them to look fabulous in small settings. The pieces make great gifts too!
