I am sure you all are getting tired of these but this one is different. It is Purple!! It is for Yakov Smirnoff, the Russian comedian. Anybody remember him?

Wonderful!!
I forgot where you told us how you make them. I'm wondering how you get the body to be round. Are you slumping?

Yes, I slump them in three sections over pieces of 1.75" stainless steel pipe. Below is the link to the thread with the kaleidoscope paper. http://artisansofglass.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3190.0;attach=11536@ Diane, Yakov has been here in Branson for many years he does a couple of shows a day. What a country!! I think he gets his kaleidoscope tonight, he has not seen it yet. Yakov is a good artist and has lots of his paintings around his theater. I just tried the link, it didn't take me to the thread but the pdf file was on a blank page at the lower left of the page. |
