Glass

I took three semesters of glass-working in college.  Mostly the classes focused in glass-blowing and casting.  I feel like I really came into my own my third semester of glass, as I started to put ideas into my projects (instead of just trying to make something that survived the process!). I find glass to be such a challenging medium because it can't be touched in order to be manipulated.  In a way, blowing glass is the art of temperature control (ex: using metal tools to strategically remove heat).  such a cool medium!

Here are the glass projects I've posted so far. There will be more to come.
