Okay, before you say anything about the word PUSSY --
Just kidding. Those of you who have seen my work know I don't make marbles, pipes, or goblets anything particularly useful -- mostly, it's flowers, leaves, branches or some form of precipitation.
It's springtime in Alaska, and that means trash along the highway, dogshit and pussy willows. I thought I'd skip memorializing the first two.
Bullseye (90 coe) soda-lime glass, worked on a GTT Lynx. Woodland Brown and Cinnabar for the branch; base of buds are black, with Deco Grey fuzzies. Etched for a few minutes with Dip N Etch, neutralized with baking soda, then rinsed.
Just for putting in a Raku vase, for sort of an Ikebana thing.
