Layed back

Posted by Frankie Hess on 3/24/2009

Made a quick trip to arcata to do a collab with D, and Matt C. jumped in for a sec.

D made the two spiral balls in the can (top and bottom of can), built the can, put the bridges on the dummy discs, and did the flat spot.

I did the tube pulls, made the two reversals in the middle of the can, the bowties and dummy discs, the mouth piece and arm, did the main weld, the carb and the mouthpiece.

Matt prepped the bottom of the can for attachment.

D was finishing up his piece when I had to leave. Haven't got to see his finished yet.

This was my first layback, thanks for the inspiration D!!!

I gotta say thanks to Matt C, and D for all the hospitality!!!!

Thanks for lookin!

Artist: Frankie Hess ( )

Fell into glass for self employment purposes and found that I love it. I have always been into some form of expressive art (music, skateboarding, a little bit of drawing and such,lately a little beatboxing) but found that glass has what I need to take my expression to the endless realms I wish to explore. I am excited about stepping out of my box and exploring new possibilities. I will have been on the torch for 5 years in jan 2009. I feel my production experience has paid me dividends, I am now comfortable with glass as a whole and will be aggressively pursuing new paths in my glass blowing career! Thanks to everybody posting your work,it is very inspiring for me to see every post! Thanks to Eusheen, Jason Lee, Marcel, Chris Carlson and El Hefe for the more direct impact your hard work has proven to have on my path whether you know me or not! If I have not met you yet, I will some time hopefully in the near future, and will thank you all in person! Thank You for checking out my work. I will be adding as I afford myself more and more time for new direction of my own. All art for viewing only, not for sale.
