Bigger New Glass

My Second Paperweight! Great fun again, looking forward to more hot shop time.

This one was also in the AGASC show. Copper wire faces embedded in float or window glass. I added some concerned wire figures just for fun. I really like the idea of using throw away glass for something interesting! I plan on doing some sconces

EDM 204 Frosty and some New Glass

This is as close to frost as we get around here! Hope to get these beautiful horses in the fog into some type of artwork!
The fused glass Tiger and Jaguar were 2 of my entries in the Art Glass Assn. of Southern California's November show. I used the same method as my dancers from last years show, liquid glass by Glassline and glass powder or frit. I hope to buy more colors as I can afford them. Combining glass and drawing in my new glass, 2 of my favorite things, is great fun!

Cats and Art Glass Assn. of Southern Calif. Show

Here are the 2 cats after firing. The standing one is my donation that will be raffled off at the reception. I dropped off my entries last night and the show looks amazing! I can't wait to see it hung. This is where the "big glass" comes out! Here is the link to show information:
