Just started a new glass blowing class. I couldn’t get into the shorter weeknight one I usually take, and am in a longer one on the weekends. The other women in class far surpassed me in skill. This is good, in that they will likely inspire me to strethc myself, but bad, in that it’s daunting to try to get a bit or a puntie for someone whose piece is so much better than mine.
I told the instructor that I wanted to concentrate on tumblers. Main reason is that I like tumblers, and I use them, unlike ice cream dishes or flower vases or decorative glassware, which generally just takes up room. I suppose at the end of the class I could make something larger, like a lampshade, but for now I am just going to work on tumblers.
This was the first one I did after my year hiatus. I don’t think it’s terrible. It will hold water.
