A piece I wow even myself!

Here's a piece I created using Diachroic Glass, Diachroic Slide Dragonfly, Plain System 96 sheets of glass and CZs. I've cold-worked this piece to give it some straight edges.

It still amazes me how Glass would play when melted down!

If you notice, the lightest coloured CZ (top) has been encased under some clear glass.

May 2008 Issue of Australian Ceramics, Glasswork and Pottery


My friend Anne Clifton of Glass Manifesto asked me back in January if I wanted to collaborate with her on an article she was writing for the Australian Ceramics, Glasswork and Pottery.

She was putting together a tutorial on glass fusing and thought that it might be interesting to show others that it can be done with my little microwave kiln.

When I can work out how to load up files so you can download a copy of the article, I'll be sure to plaster it here!

Here's a picture of the piece I created.
