Drawing On Glass

Nancy Donnelly uses underglaze pencils to create fused glass drawings.
Working in the glass school, Nancy Donnelly creates fused glass drawings and sketches. Originally a painter, Nancy likes to explore ways to bring her "painterly aspects" into glass. Using underglaze crayons and pencils, Nancy works at getting a loose 'sketch' feel into her glass artwork.
The use of underglaze pencil allows Nancy to retain her detail and her quality of sketch in the art.



Nancy likes the expressive qualities of the sketch.
Nancy is able to capture the personality of the subject.
Examples of Nancy's artwork can be seen in Foundry Gallery in DC's Dupont Circle neighborhood. Nancy will have a solo show there this coming October 3 - 28th, 2012.
Foundry Gallery, 1314 18th St NW, WDC
