Glass Blowing

We finally started blowing glass.


It feels really cool to blow glass out like bubblegum.


That brown colour was supposed to be blue. I don't know what happened...


We have to buy our own coloured frit if we want to add colours. And those are my 'safety glasses'.



More Hot Glass

We learned how to gather glass ourselves and started working with it on a punty.



The actual colour of the swirl inside is blue. It looks really different hot.


After a couple weeks I started making things that look like things.







Hot Glass

In our first class we played around with the molten glass on the work tables.


This is clear glass. Its orangey yellow when its hot enough to play with.


Mixing in colour.


All my creations from our first class.

Dam City

This was our first big project (that wasn't just an assignment). I made a dam city (heh heh). Its water powered and a pretty classy place. This building is probably a university or something.


The best part is the beaver people, so here are so detail shots so you can enjoy them too!

Beaver People

For one of my drawing assignments, we had to create a fantasy house. Mine turned into more of a  fantasy 'world'. Here are the doodles I did for the characters that would live in my world.
My city is a high class water powered dam city. And who else would live in a dam city but beaver people? 

Final drawing of the city will be posted soon (hopefully).
