7c Cynthia
Desc:	Cynthia's Whimsies
Glass:	COE 90
Method:	Mosaics are fired with the little tiles adhered to the base glass with hairspray, then white glass powder was grouted into the spaces. They were fired to full fuse, then flipped and fired to full fuse again so that the glass was capped under a clear sheet. The backs were painted with Pebeo iridescent paint and cured in an oven. The kiln would work for this too. Most tiles that contain an irid or dichroic coated glass were either capped with clear, or were fired with the coatings downside to the shelf to give them more visual depth and texture. Many of these pieces were painted on the back with Pebeo irid paints. NOTE: the irid pain will not survive firing.
