Rose Graal Series

I designed and created "The Rose Graal Series" for my final assesment at The Surrey Institute Of Art & Design, University College. I created the graal embryos which I sandblasted, engraved and cut on the diamond wheel and then picked up and blew into an adjustable stainless steel mould. These were then cut and polished.

Mountain Series

For the "Mountain Series" I blew black and white overlay cylinders, I then cut the cylinders in half and placed them in the kiln to form flat glass which could be manipulated into shards. The shards used for the final pieces were sandblasted to give them a resemblance to mountain ranges. The shards were heated and then rolled onto the glass and then blown into a bowl.

Sunset Series

I created the "Sunset Series" by using trails of ferrari red and canary yellow glass. Before the punty was made I applied the trails and then blew the bowl.

Sunset Series

This bowl was made using a similar technique to the "Sunset Series" piece further up this page. However this particular bowl was worked further by sandblasting to create texture, hence you will notice the surface is covered by peaks and troughs.
