Glass Artist, Susan Welteroth, has been designing and working in glass for over 20 years.  Through her business, Eyecatchers Glass, she creates glass panels and small gift items in fused and stained glass.  She adds traditional vitreous painting, sandblasting, and casting for special effects to enhance the work.  

Wildlife has become the main focus of her art.  She first became interested in waterfowl and fish through her clients here in Tidewater Virginia; many of whom want those subjects in their glass panels.  It has become very interesting and challenging to depict the birds and fish in glass in a realistic way. In striving to be  original, Welteroth often moves beyond the flat rectangular panel to an irregular edge and incorporates 3-dimensional areas within the design.  When showing her work at local shops and art shows, she often has to do some mass production, but she prefers working on individual commissioned pieces that add beauty and joy to those who see and own the work.
