I started this fused glass project years ago, something went wrong and it sat on a shelf, unloved. So I set about doing something with it and I'm sure you'll agree, it was worth the effort.

Jeff, you didn't do anything wrong. Art is the journey, and we don't always take the shortest route to our destination. You arrived at your destination with something quite beautiful. At the beginning, I wasn't sure I would like it, but the end result is really lovely. Well done!

Thanks Jill. Yes, I agree. It may not be what I thought it would be but it got there eventually. 😊

I don't do glass work, I just like to watch the creativity that others have and admire the amazing creations. I will play along as you are saying you made a mistake. The only thing I can think of is after "fixing" the sandblasted area to get the smooth surface, you applied the french vanilla frit to the glossy side first as opposed to applying to the glossy side second. I guess that may have affected the final result you were trying to achieve. To me it is a beautiful piece and I'd not call it a mistake. Thank you for sharing your work.

Hi Dan. If I understand what you're saying, you are on the right track. But I'll wait a bit to see if anybody else can work it out before explaining. For someone who doesn't do glass work, very well spotted.

YOUR first new firing covered the base with cldlt powde frit so the French Vanilla was not able to actually react to the chemicals of the gllass below.

You got me thinking and I'm not sure. I thought I had placed the coarse frit on the other side, not the one I fused on the clear powder. Now I'm in doubt. Also, maybe the slight reaction was because the blue wasn't reactive. Oh well! Another senior moment. 😁

Well done! It turned out very nice! The color combination worked out really well too!

I love the light it gives. I can imagine it on display with the right lighting. Sadly, no space for it at home. 😁

Just love it! Do you mind sharing what mold you used to slump into the bowl?

Hi. You can see it in the video, but I'm sorry, I don't know the name of it other than it's basically like a soup bowl. It's a while since I purchased it and memory isn't that good.

i dont think u did anything wrong.. i was wondering how u got the dreamy color in the center.. it seems to capture the eye to the center of the piece.. i would love if my art would do that!!

@RocketRoseArt 7 ай бұрын

Hi Elaine. It is basically a light sprinkle of opal red on transparent yellow. That is then on clear. The red and yellow don't react so you get a good mix. Then you need to light the piece correctly, as you do for all art.

Hi Jeff, looking well there! Shooting from the top I love the original. I love the refused outcome too. Not sure if you are going to sell it or keep it, if I was keeping it I would make a smaller version to go with this as the original ;) Just me... Take care! ~H

Hi Helene. I've got so many pieces now that it probably will only go in the gallery. I'm even running out of space there. We'll have to reopen the gallery or get serious about selling work. 😁

Hi Jeff! I can only try to imagine. Love your work and video's. Stay well! ~H@@RocketRoseArt
