Rough Drafts in Glass

When you are working on new designs, do you plan them out 100%, or do you have a general idea and your plan is to see where it goes?

I do both. Sometimes my plan needs to be specific and often I really want to experiment and feel my way around a concept.

Here, I am working with gauges of wire embedded into glass. I wanted to test wire lengths and how close I could place the wires next to each other without melting one, before the second was secure.

By the way, I found this thinner gauge melts really easily, but I like the look.

My laptop has been sent out of town to be fixed, so even fewer blog posts for now, but please hang with me, and I will post when I can. I miss it and the ease for loading photos.

See you soon.
