Land and Sky

I actually worked through a few iterations of this design.

I initially started with with two separate pieces: land and sky, but I suppose in the end they kinda merged into one.

I really liked the two as a pair, and I was going to add an embroidered sun on a piece of natural denim similar to these.

While I was soldering the blue, I kept the heat on one area a little too long and cracked the glass. :'( I sent my mom a pic.

So sad.

I ended up dismantling the whole piece and cut a new piece of blue glass. Then I tried a new sun color and I loved it.

I mean...come.on.

Then...I tried a new land color and I couldn't turn back.

THEN... I had the idea to make a whole new twinner piece with a deeper red because heck, I already had the blue!

I gave this one to my mother-in-law.

We clearly needed to water our poor plants.

I really love this piece and considered not listing it for sale.

What I love about the glass from Youghiogheny (blue and red) is that it naturally has its own movement/texture and the color patterns are always unique. So two pieces made from the same sheet of red glass still wouldn't be the same.

Thanks for reading :).
