Inspired by the beautiful dolphins of the sea, I created a pair of glass sculptures representing this magical animal.  Using classic glass blowing techniques, blue glass is shaped to form a forever glass sculpture that can be hung and will capture the love of a collector or yourself. Measuring about 2 inches wide and about 4.5 inches in length. Sold as a pair.

This large marble measures about 2 inches and is inspired by the mysterious dragon creature.
I start by using dichroic glass and pick up a copper and silver based color. Next, I use tweezers to twist the colors into a spiral until it resembles a dragon's eye. No one eye is the same, please allow for variation. Each eye is an individual work of art.

some things are worth the dance with danger.

The Flattened Rainbow Bottle is a switch-axis glass vase with spiraling rainbows twisting in opposite directions. This hand blown glass vase was created by rolling colorful glass rods onto a bubble of molten glass and then rotating the glass bubble 90 degrees, which causes the spiral to go from the bottom to the side. Then the vase is flattened with thick cork paddles to enhance the optics of the two opposing spirals.

I try to capture the essence of the starfish in a tide pool. The starfish is created with the color pattern on the bottom of the starfish that gets magnified from the thick layer of optical clear glass on the top, making the starfish almost look wet. The pattern on this particular star is called Murrine, an Italian glass technique where I take a glass cane (long rod of glass) and cut it in cross-sections to reveal a pattern that mimics the natural texture of the starfish in the wild. People have also said that it looks like barnacles on the starfish.

The “Jade Vortex” is created by first rolling up jade green rods of glass over a bubble and then twisting the bubble to make a spiral of green and clear in between. Then, by poking a hole in the side of the bubble and placing a new blow pipe in the hole, the bubble is turned so that the spiral is on the side of the glass and not the bottom. The bubble is blown out and flattened with large thick cork paddles. Once the bubble has cooled the bottom is flattened, another metal rod with a little bit of glass on the end is attached to the bottom of the bubble, and the glass is broken off the blow pipe. The neck is stretched out by heating it in a 2000 degree oven. When the vase is finished, it is put into an oven to cool slowly overnight to room temperature.

Dimensions: 15.5″H, 7.5″W, 2.75″D
