Glass dragons can drive you up the wall

Last time I said I would post a glass dragon. I’ve been busy here’s a gaggle of them…

5 wall glass dragons

They just keep growing!

Glass Hairy Seahorse

I was asked to make a LUSH  Glass Hairy Seahorse. So here it is:

Glass Hairy Seahorse

The red/pink on the hanging glass seahorse is using gold and the amber is using silver. The metals are sprayed on and fired in the kiln so they sink into the surface of the glass. It's hung using fishing wire, which seems rather appropriate. :) You can see another seahorse here: http://bit.ly/17S3l6H

Might do a dragon next time....

Glass red rose

Sometime ago I was asked if  I could make a glass red rose in a dome... Well at last I have found some domes  I'm happy with. I ordered them in Birmingham yesterday. When they arrive the first thing I'm going to do is make some roses go in them. This is the rose I was thinking of:

Glass Octopus SEVEN LEGS!

I was in the studio making a Glass Octopus commenting to a group of people about someone I worked with who made them with SIX legs. So what did I do made an OCTOpus in front of all those people with SEVEN legs! :/ Here's a picture of it:

My wife thought I was pulling her leg. :) I bet the Octopus was hopping mad.

Glass Dragon on a rock

I've been working at a dragon on a rock. It's turned out really well. I found the rock in a local stream, put it through the dishwasher and made a dragon to go on it... Great fun. Wendy's colors work very well by enhancing the form. Here's a picture of it:

Here's another view from the other side...

Glass Tiger Cub

I was asked if we had a glass Tiger. This is a glass tiger cub from Pamy in the North East of England.:

Here's another picture of a Glass Tiger I made:

What do you get if you cross a tiger with a sheep?
A stripey sweater!

Hope you like them? Might do a dragon next time....

Glass Fusing kit for beginners

I came across a Glass Fusing Kit For Beginners, which I thought would be of interest for those people interested in do some of their own glass work at home. Its great in that you can heat the glass in a microwave. You can see the kit at http://amzn.to/14hT85e. If you know anybody who would be interested in the kit you're welcome to share this post :
