Welcome Pipyr . I like the work . How much of the metal work did you do yourself ? All the way down to shaping?

I have been following your work for a little while now. It is really unique. Very fantastical. I love the combination with non glass related materials, especially the little broom looking attachments.

Thanks...the metal work is all electroforming. It al started out as something else and then was arranged and electroformed. I don't generally use anything mass-produced in my work (with the exception of faceted or polished stones...I don't do that.) I use different materials (lots of organic stuff like bones) and techniques to get everything just the way I want it (most of the time) There are endless possibilities with electroforming...and for each one, it seems like there are also endless obstacles to overcome to get it right :twitch: Anyway, it's fun and the results can be really cool when it works.

Thanks for the warm welcome! I tried to resist the draw to another time-sucking forum, but the pull to this one was just too strong...

Love em!

I love how you combine different materials (like sharks teeth). It's really well done.
