Lizards: Lizard Drawings
http://francescadarcy-6.blogspot.com/2009/05/after-studying-landscapes-and.html
Tuesday, 19 May 2009. After Studying landscapes I took some of the ideas and experimented with layering glass to create perspective, I went on to use multiples to create larger outcomes. I started using small glass nuggets which I recycled to create new art pieces. I was inspired to use these as I liked the patterns they created and it reminded me of the way fish and lizard skin is formed. Here are some of my lizard drawings which I created using mainly watercolour and pen. Posted by Mae Rose.

Slumping Glass Nuggets
Sunday, 24 May 2009. I took the fused, cleaned and polished sheets of glass and sat them on top of my mould, making sure that the edges were clear. I slumped these at about 600 degrees. In this part of the process but it was something I found myself doing a lot when I was waiting for the kiln to finish and cool down! Sadly and far too often my prayers were not answered and I ended up with ugly broken bits of work, as you can see below. 3 Clean and polish. Posted by Mae Rose. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Fusing Bullseye Glass
Sunday, 24 May 2009. I chose to work with Bulls-eye glass in my final term of my third year. I decided to change materials as I was not totaly happy with the results I had been getting with the fused nuggets. Although it may have been a risk to start with a new material at this stage, I was confident that I could acehive more outstanding results. Of, yellow, fuchsia. Dark blue, light blue, turquoise. 1 Cutting the glass. Sharp and perfected the circular form. 4 Take out of kiln. I was extremely happy wit...

Slumping Bullseye Glass
Sunday, 24 May 2009. Fusing Bulls-eye went well, my shapes worked and the colours worked. I realised that this type of glass is much better to use and to create finished objects with than the nuggets. I made more plaster moulds from my silicone master and lay six medium sized ones in the kiln along with about five smaller moulds. 1 Putting moulds into the kiln. 2 Putting sheets of glass onto moulds.

Making a Silicone Mould
Making a Silicone Mould. Sunday, 24 May 2009. I had to use silicone to make my master mould as plaster moulds do not. Last very long in the kiln. I had to have a master mould which would then allow me to make as many plaster moulds as I needed for slumping, instead of making them from clay each time. Despite the time it took to make these moulds (about 3 to 4 weeks) it did save me time in the long run. 1 Make a clay model. 2 Cover the clay in one thin layer of silicone. Once all these layers were complet...

Experiments
Sunday, 24 May 2009. Of the year i knew that i wanted to specialise in glass, but i didn't. Quite know what i wanted to make. Here are a few things that i made in the first term of the first year.

Glass Nugget Forms
Tuesday, 19 May 2009. I chose to use glass nuggets because i wanted to use materials that were easy to obtain and which would allow me to follow my idea of taking one object and transforming it into another. For these pieces I melted the glass nuggets, fused them together to create my own unique sheet of glass, them slumped them over forms to create vase and bowl shapes. Posted by Mae Rose.

Skeleton Glass Forms
Wednesday, 20 May 2009. These forms are again made using melted glass nuggets. I fused them together to create a sheet of glass and then slumped it over my form. I was inspired by Lilly. Pads and flower shapes when making this particular form. I wanted the outcome to differ greatly form a normal bowl and resemble more interesting organic shapes. I made six skeleton forms in total, four were the same form but I used different colours and a small form in yellow. Posted by Mae Rose.
