Reflection

today we learnt some glass techinques. i chose to use the 'slumping' technique. with some heat proof fabric. i cut strips of this special fibered fabric and weaved them. (inspiration taken from a design i found on a tyre) i then placed a sheet of glass over the top. when the glass is heated in the kiln, it will soften and fall or 'slump' into shape. my piece is in currently in the kiln so i will have to wait until next week to see how it turned out.
