a work in progress….
Attempt at capturing dried stuff inthe middle of glass….. ends up in blah & bubbled-blah:
Actually – the bubbled one looks rather cool up close — but sadly there’s not really much I can do with somethign this fragile (and lumpy):
Steve wanted to see before & after of the kiln shot below…. welll….. turns out I’m not always good at remembering the “after” photo shoot…..
BEFORE:
AFTER (look in the upper right-hand corner — you can see one full size square from the above “before” shot and lots of little pieces of “after after” where I ended up breaking up the fused pieces & melting them again to be smaller):
Mostly I’m just playing around with what I have to see what I might come up with…. so far, I gots nothin’………..
Baking is art, too, right?
For my friend’s wedding:
Every so often, I decide that I want to play with glass fusing (on a very small scale):
These were actually made in March, but couldn’t be posted right away as they were gifts and it just wouldn’t do to show them off before the recipients got them 😀
This is what happens when I procrastinate sewing an actual *dress* for myself….. 🙂 Nearly instant gratification!
It’s almost warm enough to
(a) work on hot glass in my garage!
(b) work on larger cement project in my garage!
….the “almost” is only in there because…… not only are the weather folks predicting cold weather & snow for this weekend, but due to hasty winter preparations last fall….. my garage is not exactly in great shape for anything other than storage…. so I think that first big pring project will be to re-organize the garage in to a better workspace. yup. big plans, people. big plans.
Spent some time playing with watercolor splotches and a permanent marker/pen a week or two ago:
More to come in the next few days, if I don’tget distracted by other stuff.
Playin’ with spare parts:
