Square Glass Bowl with Rosemaled Lid by Mary Schliep

Wow! This is another fun new piece from Mary Shliep, longtime instructor at North House. A covered Anchor Hocking  6 1/2" glass dishwasher safe square bowl is neatly covered by a handpainted rosemal lid. The bowl is approximately 2" deep and with the knobbed lid, it stands 3.5" tall and the lid is 6 .75" square.  The craftsmanship of this rosemal piece is evident in every detail. The artist's skillful brushwork and attention to precision are showcased in the crisp lines, intricate detailing and smooth transitions between colors.   

Mary started rosemaling in 1989 and has been busily painting ever since. Mary specializes in the Valdres and Telemark styles (each defined by the geographic region where they found their beginning in Scandinavia). Since the school’s founding, Mary has been a consistent teacher at North House. She primarily does consignment work for people across the nation. Mary has studied with twelve Gold Medalists and two Norwegian instructors.
