 Since 1987, Permanent
Reflections,
started by glass artist
Randy Mardrus, has been designing and creating handmade illuminated
carved glass that delivers a stunning impact to the
world’s most luxurious environments. Mardrus begins these original
commissions by creating and refining sketches, inspired from a client's
ideas. After meticulous preparation, he uses his sandblasting
techniques to carefully hand carve away glass until the desired depth
for each detail is reached, slowly and patiently creating elaborate
deep relief sculptures in glass. The pieces are then illuminated with
concealed lighting... The
result is carved glass art that flaunts
vibrant colors and captivating depth - pieces that demand attention.
"Because each
piece is exclusive and original," Mardrus says, "clients are proud to
know their artwork is unlike any other in the world."
Starting young,
Randy was encouraged as a child to follow his dream of being an artist
by
family, friends, teachers and everyone who noticed his natural talent
and passion for art. After countless hours of experimenting in the
1980's with carved glass - and learning it's unforgiving nature, he
became fascinated with this time-honored art and began getting exciting
results. It became his life's work, and now he continues to push
the creative limits of his medium with unsurpassed
experience and
innovation creating carved glass infused with light.
"I
love the way glass dances with color and
light,
and the challenges and rewards of achieving the effects I'm looking
for, but my biggest rewards are from the overwhelming
satisfaction expressed by my clients."
Recognized worldwide,
Mardrus’ artwork continues to get lots of attention and is showcased in
many luxury homes, commercial environments, mega-yachts and private
aircraft by a diverse list of clientele, including some of the world’s
most respected companies, VIP’s and heads of state. Many of his pieces
are also featured in international hardcover books and magazines.
"Our mission is sharply focused on satisfying
those who desire the extraordinary, with world-class quality and
artistic vision."
