Newy showed me the technique of using the positive images in the fiber mold on the right. Pieces were cut out and placed on the placemat fiber. The glass was then placed on top of the fiber paper shapes so it would drape over the shapes when fired.
After firing:
This piece of glass work is on the way to becoming a wind chime!
I wanted to use both the positive and negative images in this sculpture. The fiber mold on the left has both. On the left, I cut out the sea grass and placed the positive pieces on the right over the fish shape I cut out. The positive fish shape was placed over the cut out sea grass on the left. The eyes followed the same placement -- positive placed in negative fish and negative left in positive fish.
After firing:
Tomorrow: Firing right side down.
