O Man, these are gorgeous. Is that a touch of green on the tentacles? They're beyond beautiful, mysterious, thought-provoking. I'm so glad you put your work on teh web, so I can gape at it.
ReplyDeleteThanks! yes, both the bronze and the glass have a little green in them - unintentionally. The bronze from flame scorching to speed up oxidation, and the glass just the background black bleeding through the yellow powder.

ReplyDeletewhat are these? I'm intrigued
