      @@GregOwen-gmanonfire thanks, greg. what eventually happened was that bullseye glass gave me an 18 month residency in 2012 at their santa fe resource center and i fell in love with kiln firing. i spent the whole residency making 6" sq. color samples, returning to color after over 20 years of working only in black/red/white (paint and natural fibers, not glass). so, dan schwoerer designed a large, bell lid kiln for me and my husband and eric whittemore built it. glass has become central to my art now.
      i hope that you continue to make videos that both give the experience and teach...it is rare when a videographer can do both and make it seem so natural.

    I respect the craft, skill and art. These are amazing glasseworkers
    However, imho that huge mass of a glass "wing" threw off the gracefulness and delicateness of the rest of the bird. A beautiful bird sculpture with this huge heavy looking clump of glass coming out of the top of it that didnt really fit the resr of the sculpture. It suggested a cactus far more than a birds wing.

    • @SpydersByte
      @SpydersByte 2 роки тому +2

    Excellent video all around, but I have to say how refreshing it is to hear a narration that isn't afraid of going over viewers heads just a bit. Hitting the 'optimal challenge' (game theory) sweet spot isn't easy, nor is finding your audience. Beautifully executed!

      Thank you for your insights. I used to emcee at Museum of Glass, so I hope to be able to relate to people off the street, as well as established glass lovers. It doesn't always work, but better to aim high and fail than just post fluff, in my opinion.

      @@arachanine Disagree completely and I think ur missing the point I believe the artists objective was to create the overall "Shape" of the bird, so you can tell what it is but also marvel at its ovular structure. what they came up with was something that blurs the lines between the actual reality of how the wings should look in nature and an artistical choice of how the wings look like within the sculpture. It reminds me of a colorful 3D cave painting and the linear structure is satisfying as well as difficult to pull off. They manage to do quite well the birds smooth design and seamless curves that are birthed out of its circular base to show again the birds "Shape" a basic outline that parallels nature in a simplistic way but thats my opinion art is subjective
