do you have to sign the glass while it's hot for the titanium pen to work? I would assume yes but it would be an interesting thing to know..

the reds look brown when they are hot. the first pic it was at 800 degrees. once it gets down to 400 or so the red turns back to red. it's pretty cool because until it comes out of the kiln i really don't know what it looks like.

that's pretty awesome, must be like a surprise every time you open up that kiln.

it's been a fun ride I never would have thought you would have got this good this fast... those two pipes you posted up yesterday with the orange and blue and shit has this 'cosmic' aspect to the colors that I really dig... hope you keep progressing that style..

those are some great pieces.

do you have a plan when you make a piece or do you just sit down at the torch and wing it?
