Detailed Carved Linework




This appears to be a pattern in my work: Crazy amounts of tiny lines, carved by an X-Acto. Here's my glass project from last year's glassblowing class, where everyone made 16 objects, one to give to each member of the class. I made 16 panels of sheet music on plate glass. The song is Scott Joplin's "The Entertainer," a popular ragtime piano piece. The ledger lines and notes were sandblasted onto the glass.

Now, I'm creating a stencil with intricate tendrils.

The Conclusion: Lines are fun. So is negative space. And ragtime tunes.
