How I create things in my kiln, and what eventually happens to what I create...

Glass goes in the kiln, and glass comes out, quite altered! Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. That's what happens in life.

Day of the really dead?

Today I made this skull coaster .

This is a 5.5" x 5.5" coaster made by fusing clear glass over white irridescent glass. I fired the dichro wavy strips at the same time I fused the two pieces together at 1450 df, then drew the skull (Glassline paint again) and fired the image and slumped it in another firing at 1350 df.

It took most of the morning to draw this guy.  He/she has a nice smile, don't you think?
