Jason Lee and Marbleslinger collab 1 of 8.  2002.

Jason Lee and Marbleslinger collab 1 of 8. 2002.

Jason Lee and Marbleslinger.
no 1 of 8 made in august 2002 in Burlington, VT.

Jason did the green wig wag and i filled in the center window. We each kept one marble out of the series and this one is in my personal collection. Been meaning to take some photos of it forever. Each mib had a matching wig wag window and then different elements added to that. These were really fun to make, and i've been meaning to expand on this idea since then.

Mad props to the GURU Mr Jason LEE, one of my biggest personal influences to challenge myself in this medium. Never ending thanx Jason, i might have given this glass thing up along time ago if it wasnt for your positive energy and friendship

marble 12/03

marble 12/03

heres a marble i made in december of 2003,
i sent it as a gift to wil menzies and his family,
not only does this guy put out the FLOW magazine which helps connect and promote our scene, he makes bomb tools and orginal glass art, and on top of that spends his "free" time doing things like the ornament auction to raise money for good causes like the eugene glass school, so this was my little way of saying,
thank you WIL (and JEN)!!

marbles suck

marbles suck

yea i dont make too many mibs anymore simply because i think its a pain in the ass to round em off.... love doing the designs, hate the tediousness of using marble molds to make it "perfectly" round... been there dont that, but hadnt done that in a minute, so i hit it, might hit it a few more times, then quit for some next shit...

Well if feels pretty soft to me.
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
well I feel pretty blissfully."
