Swalwell’s work is modern in style and she’s got a sophisticated designer’s eye when it comes to mixing up color, pattern and shape. Hers is the quintessential contemporary art glass, which she creates by thinking outside the box of ordinary techniques, experimenting with different forms, including pate de verre technique and casting glass.
