Glass won’t ever do what you expect. It has as many moods as a movie star. Marcus Brown polishing 200″ mirror on Mt Palomar, 1930’s
Structures of steel and glass define the midtown landscape with shimmering light and shadow. Visual images captured on window panes mirror the patterns of city life and its transient nature. These reflections are the inspiration for this piece, transforming a blank canvas into multi – dimensional art and providing endless creative interpretations for this artist.
