Salvage Bottles
I have an affinity for old glass jars and bottles, I’ve collected them for years. One day I realized (thank you Pinterest) that I could sculpt polymer clay on to glass - and my Salvage Bottle series was born. This series revolves around the concept of finding lost treasure. Each work looks as if it was lost in time then found again.
