Takao is another super exciting artist from Japan, fired up and ready to let the entire world enjoy the incredible glass he is creating. Takao learned from the same teacher as master Junichi Kojima, and then went on to create his own type of pointillism in glass, using tiny dots of glass to create his wonderfully unique and original images. Takao's specialty when he started was a unique type of fumed retticello, a style we'd never seen before, comprised of lots of dots and imploded fuming that really brought the rettis to life. He has since moved on to become one of the best in the world at dot mandalas and other original patterns, bringing thousands of tiny dots of glass together into one stunningly tight and controlled design that will boggle your mind. Gotta love glass and the creative minds behind it, taking glass concepts and adding a twist that makes them even more fun than they used to be, ha! Takao also loves to mold glass faces into his work, and you see these moon-type faces on the backs of his marbles, sides of pendants, etc. I also love all of the extra little touches that Takao adds to his work - that attention to detail that we all loooove so much. Super fun glass, don't wait to get some Takao Miyake glass into your collection!
