I enjoy using traditional bead making techniques but with a twist. I work the glass rods hot directly in the flame building up layers of transparent jelly colours over opaque pithy colours. The warm glass is around 800c, and moves a bit like honey, so its important to keep the liquid glass moving continually and steadily whilst working. I add colour and texture, some of the spike details have up to 4 layers of colour, ( I can’t get enough spiky spots !)
