I'm sorry. All the warmth from my part of the world must have migrated to you, because for once it's cool here.

I started getting suspicious about the weather when my side of the state hardly got any snow in winter, yet Jerusalem got snow...

It's not fair.

Arghhh, I think I may have actually overworked my wrist because all I did today with my tablet was some lineart, and now my hand is too weak and stiff to do any of the coloring -_- Why must the things I love hurt me ...Anyway, my drawing hand might be out of commission for a little bit and that sucks :P
Also I didn't even play A Dark Room today so if anyone was going to ask, it wasn't that

Hey, I saw some drawings you did with your nondominant hand in the art museum a while ago, and they were pretty good. Maybe it's time for some more right handed Piney drawings while your other hand rests?

I don't know why, but I found this hilarious. 

Piney also rhymes with shiny, so shine on when your hand gets better.  ;D

Hey sooooo, I'm gonna post some stuff. Because of reasons. Those reasons being that people here have shown interest in glass work, and apparently I'm a glory hog who likes to show off their own work.

Oh well, at least I understand me


This one was made with lead came, and glass paint for the windows on the buildings and the moon's face. Fun fact: you can never truly appreciate stained glass until it is back lit by the sun, it really makes the true colors shine! The red glass was this beautiful combo of reds and oranges, making it look like fire! And the yellow glass has cool geometric fractals in it, which these photos don't do justice.





This panel was based off the works of Kandinsky. Used glass paint again, and beautiful opalescent glass that shone like the rainbow in the light! Also, glue chip glass, which is that cool blue glass with the detailing in it.





This one uses copper foil, copper petina, leading, and a bunch of different glass in it. Used it as a test run for my final project. Fun fact: there are mirrors in it, so you can see part of my cheek and fingers reflected in it.  :D Another fun fact: you CAN'T see all the blood that was shed in making this piece. That was the day I learned that handling copper foil is like handling little slicy-stabby knives



Here's a link to show the petina process of turning lead solder into a copper color.


Thia one was my finalo project in the class. Used multiple different techniques for making it: copper foil, petina, glass fusing. glass painting, and epoxy. This one was probably the most fun to do, because I got to have the most fun with it, and copper foil is a very freeing medium! Plus the concept was cool, and when you turn her around, she looks possessed, which was an added bonus  ;D
