Glass Cutting

You may remember that a few weeks ago I did a Stained Glass Window workshop . Well I'm continuing and I've designed and am now making a larger piece. These two pieces are glass are from some of the sheets I was working with tonight. The bottom one is called waterglass because it has a light ripple running through it, and the top one is called glue chip because they spread a particular glue over the glass and when they peel it off it leaves that random pattern. I didn't photograph the other piece I worked with tonight - it was the mother of all glass, it is a pain to cut and has taken ages to get right: I don't even want to think about it let alone tackle that one again. Fortunately these two were a dream to cut after that one.

Next time you see this glass I hope it'll be the finished product!

Sounds great - the top one looks like it has frost patterns running over it!

Excellent shot Gail!

This looks like a fun project ... a double creativity ... the product itself plus your PaD! What more could a gal ask for? ;-)

Great light on an interesting project. Looking forward to seeing how this develops.

Neat patterns on the glass and very nice composition.
Can't wait to see the finished product!

I could have sworn from the thumbnail that this had something to do with toilet tissue.
But fortunately, it's stained glass materials.
Looking forward to the end result.

I bet it's fun, and relaxing (even when it's tricky!)

It certainly seems a very interesting workshop you're doing. Love the light on the fingers.

What a great hobby - there's some great PAD potential there too. I really like the light here.
