Out of Africa

1.  This piece came about  because I received a challenge from a fellow glasser in the form of a small piece of green glass, some clay, and a baggie of small white pebbles.  I was to create a stained glass piece using at least some of what I received, and I could also use something I already had....After looking for ideas in all my places for days it finally came to me....Approximately 8 X 8 inches.  I used glass from Bullseye, Armstrong, and Spectrum.  The tree is hand etched.  I acquired a hand held high speed engraving tool right after Christmas and was dying to do something meaningful with it.... The masks are made with Sculpy.  Masks and pebbles are attached using No Daze Mosaic Adhesive.  I used an old neck chain to "frame " it and as a way to hang it.  I do not still have this piece, and do not have a photo of me with it.
