Thank you Heidi, I was using NS-65 Cherry and NS-85 Poppy over White, Grey and Black for the various marbles.

Not much boro but here you go-

I have been working on this sculpture for months.

Actually, I welded the body and base, then forgot about it. Then yesterday I made the staff and put on the patina.

I really like it. Go to the etsy for more pics.

@Wicked: original idea - love the T-rex!

@Hagstrom: very clean design and work - very nice!

@joebirder: I like the chaos look of your implosion, I guess they are fumed tube implosions?

Here is my second attemp on a wig wag dichroic marble - very pleased with the result (diameter is 38mm)



Cheers
Michael

Hag, Joe, Michael - nice stuff!!

I posted this over in the regular gallery, but I figured I would put it here too, for those of you who only check in here A cooperative effort between me and Robert Mickelsen while he was up here teaching a class. If you get the chance, take a class from him! It was fantastic! Sorry the pics are big...

Oh my gosh, I love the leafy sea dragon. We went to the aquarium a couple weeks ago and we saw them there. Of course I instantly started thinking about how I could make one in glass!

Default My first post

All of those pics give me inspiration.....

I've been "playing" with glass for almost 2 years, but took some long breaks over that time. I hope to take my first class in the next month or two. I started working with boro about 3 months ago and have started to focus on a few things. I'm still very new, but here are a few things I made recently. The more I see, the more I want to try!

Wow, some KILLin going on in here!!!!

Pipry . . . man. Keep on eaten those Wheaties.

Well, some vessels from me. I have not made any real vessel work in years. I have come to the conclusion that making beads will make you soft!!! My blown skills are . . . well, let's say all results need ruffling. I think over the next few months I will get back on the blown road. Try and redeem myself.
