fused glass fish picture

Using glass enamel, silver leaf and the usual glass. Lots of nice bubbles in this one. I still need to finish their tails though.

Fresh out of the kiln. I'm quite pleased with this even though it's a bit lopsided. It shrank more than I expected, so the glass needs to overlap the mould a fair bit next time. I love the texture of the frit and the light through it.
As you can see, Isha is impressed.

A first go at some silver fish, now I need to make lots more for a big bowl. 
Bullseye and Dichroic fused glass with stringers and frit. I've had a chance to really use my Christmas presents, a standard Kristall grinder and an Inland flat lap grinder. Helped a lot with the tails...
