"Herkimer Claw"

(TroyBennett)
In the Summer of 2005 Andrew Brown and I got together for the 2nd time at his studio in Kansas City. We really wanted to step outside the box, so we decided to forget the technique and focus on shapes. Andrew also got his hands on some crazy color boro blobs. These blobs weighed between 1-5 pounds each. I was afraid to use them at first, because they looked like they would blow up in the flame, but it went great. More Pics Coming Soon

Boro Paperweights

(EyeCandyArts)
I had a chance to work with Andrew Brown at AGI in 2005 and after that I had big ideas of what could be achieved with the help of coldworking techniques.

This is a small batch of boro paperweights I made to better learn the lap wheel that our shop just bought. They are very similar to and inspired by Andrew Brown and Troy Bennett's Colab series so there won't be too many of these coming from me.

I actually have a bunch different ideas I'd like to try with coldworking techniques, and I plan to incorporate them into my work as soon as possible. The next few weeks should be pretty interesting...

Black Hercules Beetle

(WesleyFleming)
"Native to the rain forests of Central and South America, their title is well deserved as they are one of the largest beetles known. This scarab beetle is most noted for its thoracic and cephalic horns, which can grow longer than the body of the beetle itself. This adaptation is primarily used during fights with other males. The Hercules beetle is said to be the strongest creature on earth for its size, able to carry 80 times its own body weight."

Made of Effetre glass on a GTT Phantom. Measures about 3" x 2" x 1"

Asian Longhorn Beetle * Featured Page *

Asian Longhorn Beetle

(WesleyFleming)
"The Asian long-horned beetle, translated as Sky Ox in Chinese, is native to China where it causes widespread mortality of poplar, willow, elm, and maple throughout vast areas of eastern Asia. An invasive species in the United States, the larva of this beetle has a voracious appetite for wood. Females of this species chew into the bark and lay eggs. When the eggs hatch, the immature beetles, which look like big white worms, chew their way farther into the tree. When they mature, the full-grown beetles chew their way out of the tree. The beetle life cycle leaves trees riddled with holes, oozing sap. The USDA believes this beetle can probably survive and reproduce in most sections of the country where suitable host trees exist. The beetle has also invaded Britain, Austria and Germany." - adapted from Wikipedia.org
