Found this awesome LARGE fused glass art glass bowl in a local thrift store in the area of Raleigh, NC the other day. It's diameter a good 16.5 inches! Loved the design, and the clear blue glass with the frosted white, so a nice addition to my art glass collection. Then I realized the bowl was signed in one of the blue triangles!!! Unfortunately, like a lot of signatures, I cannot decipher it! Does anyone recognize this signature, or artist's style? Appreciate any suggestions.
it says Caliente - Hot in Spanish.
Here it is maybe!

You beat me to it Pete! This might be it, an open to the public studio and work bench in Texas! :^)
That was one of the first searches I tried, but could not find any similar, geometric designs in their work. And, no pics of how they marked their pieces. Still digging...
Btw, forgot to thank you for your comments. Much appreciated!!!
Fyi, I contacted Caliente Hot Glass studio via Facebook, and they said it was not one of their creations. So, still digging as time permits...
