Artwork Description:
Is quite beautiful art piece.. BUT not done yet!!!! still want to add blue.. Aqua blue.. in the cloud on left to the abstracted 'giraffe' .. will be transparent.. and touch of orange red ruby in still 'pink like' space between tree on right and 'giraffe'.. Also might want to enhance the figures in bottom left.. and right.. But.. cannot go art of fire and glass studio sessions for quite a while.. So.. Might leave it as is...
pic taken in evening outside.
Is the one I started last week Wednesday..
Was a rejected piece by other glass artisan.. given to me to do something with.. well.. dumped it.. meaning.. Great Glass Fused Artist and more.. smiile.. Glenn Briggs, placed it in hot kiln.. as was.. then when really glowing red hot.. took it out.. and immediately submerged it in cold water, in bucket.. sssssshhhhh........ and steam.. and crack.. and the previous glass layers on copper base crack off.. then Glenn save the in water left fallen off glass.. and gave the copper.. with remnants on it to me.. to stat new.. My own..
I scubbed it.. cleaned off the burnt stuff.. left the fire burns on there, but still had to clean it.. added clear ground glass and covered the back.. fired again.. and same front..
And today.. continued..
I did this time, design on both sides.. fire scale, which I love still visible in places..
So.. that's it.. for now..
Is larger piece.. will measure when I find tape.. still did not find.. but will sooner or later..
