ANNE BURTT
SAN ANTONIO
I am a San Antonio based, contemporary fused glass artist best known for my
multidimensional, layered glass works. My love of color, texture and the beauty
of glass is evident in all of my artwork. In my “Glasscapes” series, I create a
diverse array of contemporary abstract panoramas painted with enamels on
multiple layers of textured glass. My “Sea Anemone” fused glass sculpture
series evokes memories of dives onto coral reefs. The colorful organic
tentacles and the juxtaposition of their movement in delicate glass with the
clean flat steel housing is very captivating and is truly a one-of-a-kind fused
glass “sea creature!”
Bio:
After a successful career as a US Air Force investigator, Anne Burtt began
to search for a creative outlet. With no formal art background, she was
introduced to stained glass art while living in Alexandria, VA. After several years
creating custom windows, Anne discovered the magical world of fused or kiln
formed glass! This medium provides her an inexhaustible source of creative
possibilities through the combination of colors, textures and techniques. Anne’s
artwork undergoes multiple kiln firings to create movement and depth to her 3
dimensional artwork. Anne has been represented by several galleries including
Globe Fine Art in Santa Fe, NM and recently with a successful solo show at
Mockingbird Handprints Gallery, San Antonio, TX.
Tropical Reflections
2022
Tropical Reflections is a contemporary
abstract “Glasscape” of painted fused
glass. Multiple layers of enamels are
painted onto flat art glass then fired
several times in my kiln. Once cool,
repeated applications of small layered
sheet, crushed and sting glass added to
the background design build texture and
depth resulting in my abstract panoramas.
Tropical Reflections is mounted on a
whitewashed cradled wood panel.
