Creating a Glass Art Sculpture in the Studio, Part 3 In Which a Horse Becomes Glass

by KMS | Jun 22, 2021 | Uncategorized

Read Part 1 and Part 2 Into the Heat… The Story So Far… The plaster horse mold has been pressed in the sand and readied for the most spectacular part of the day – pouring the 2,000 degrees liquid molten glass into the mold. We change into our protective clothing. This...

We have made the mold, pressed it onto the sand and filled it with liquid molten glass. We are on the journey to a fine art glass sculpture! Now Comes the Tricky Part…! As soon as it touches the sand the glass immediately starts to cool. Here we come to the really...
