New Jaws Project

The weather here has been really nice and allowed me to finish up the outside projects before the real cold and snow hits. I do love to take walks with the sun shining and the leaves crunching under foot.

I used the Patty Gray Jaws technique to create a project. Partly to refresh my memory of the process and partly to use up some scrap glass.

I have a 8" Patty Gray dam that I can use and if I use this dam I will be able to slump it because I also have a slump mold that will fit the 8" dam project.

I started with a clear base with two layers of black glass for the sides.

I then started adding yellow, red and clear scrap.

Here is the jaws scrap glass before fusing.

Here is the project prior to fusing it.

Here is the project just after fusing - still in the kiln.

Here is the finished project in a sunny window. 

The center section (jaws) really pops with the black sides.

Love this technique and the project.
