Blowin' glass on my new mirage - WINTER 2010/11

i try to, i have been known to forget here and there. :eyesmoke:

i didn't get my T pen until after my first year. none of my earlier stuff is signed either.
 
Have you ever considered doing a piece inspired by the cheshire? I've been looking around and have found only one, and it was from 2 years ago. I would think there would be more Alice inspired pipes, but there seems to be none.

My next piece is an fdd piece. Do you take requests via pm? I'm new to your glass. And should I take a number? Lol.

this is pretty much a working hobby for me. i never know what i'm making until it is completed. i will start a marble and before i'm done it will be a bubbler. i will start a pendant and it will become a one hitter halfway thru. i "listen" to the glass and let it do what it wants. i have no control over what i produce. to an extent anyway. that is why i set a goal of 2 dozen spoons. i am trying to learn to "focus". none of this is easy.

so to sum it all up, for everyone here, i have no future plans to make anything specific. i cannot do custom, requests, or even "ideas". it simply does not work that way for me. i make what i make and when i'm done i post pics. stay tuned and keep an eye out. if you see me make something you like ask me about it. i'm sure we will be able to work something out.

:peace:

Or experience. Respect. I can't wait for something orage.... :D
i don't think experience will change my ways. as i'm working the glass and color, things start appearing. patterns form and shapes emerge. experience will help me recognize these movements, but nothing will stop the voices in my head. "make it into a bubbler fdd, not a silly marble..." ;)

don't see a lot of orange out there, do we? :neutral:

That's what I'm saying....you can't force it. People who have talent and experience know to go into something expecting nothing and end up creating everything :D


Which would be you, sir.
