hot glass redux



got out to shop ~9:20 - b. already finishing a piece up !
got stuff set up..1) layered heavy white on seed;2nd gather,then diamond marver. 3rd gather, swung out for oct. mold..hopefully the bubbles will cast shadows on the white..and "move" as the lighting changes..shall see... pure genius !
2) combined shards of iris gold & ruby (old pieces) on preheater - picked those up on 2nd gather & cased with clear;blew out into oct. post mold - got good shape & puntied up..dam straight break too ! - then the sucker broke to bits.. i think it was a compatibility problem... shit ! was going to make a bowl for b.s "bowls for beggars" dinner but it kept cracking... fuggit !
last piece i alternated iris gold & gold ruby bands - IT WAS GREAT !
was going to post pics of last weeks work..freaking disk is empty ! lol !
