Glass Blowing I

This is a video of my Glass Blowing I instructor demonstrating how to make a piece for a project I have to do. I'm making Charlie Brown out of glass, so this is his shirt! The song is "Valkyrie Missile" from Angels and Airwaves. The camera is super shaky at some parts. Sorry! I was shooting the video for me as a review tool, not for others, but some folks wanted to see.

@Dierwolf2000 Thanks!!! :oD Here's a photo of the finished product beside the original piece- tinyurl [dot] com/glassproj There are a few other shots in there, but that one shows a good side by side :o) Unfortunately I wasn't able to finish the hat in time.

@Dierwolf2000 I'm just about finished with the piece, so I'll definitely share the finished piece :o) The studio is at the Tidewater Community College Visual Arts Center in Portsmouth, VA. It's a small studio, but it's got a lot of good gear and our instructor is awesome! This is his site: gothrupglass[dot]com

If I get into grad school, I won't be able to take glass 2 (I was only taking 1 for fun) but if I don't get in, I'd love to take it :o)

sweet, could you show us a pic or vid of your finished sculpture? I'm a vase maker way way more than a sculptor, but i've always been amazed by people's abilities to sculpt. That and you guys got some sweet swedish blocks. Where is this studio located? are ya takin glass 2? i definitely got the bug as you can tell, keep up the good work!
