glass art from Bermuda

[LeMieuxGalleries]

Here's a piece that I grumbled about in recent past.
I did my very first spider mounts on the tiny ones, strapped in the starfish legs with mylar and handcut openings the size of the dish/amoebas and sunk them in to be secured from underneath.
Lots of work but super rewarding!

I like the layout of the items - they look like they are simply scattered across the sand by a retreating wave - good job! (well, except for the dishes!) (Maybe it is a tidepool!)

Very nice! Sooo, how long did it take????

Good work! Sometimes the hardest designs are the one that are meant to look random and natural...you did it!

Very nice! Sooo, how long did it take????

Since it was my first go- it took about 6 hours.
I imagine that it should have took about 4.
She was charged for 3 hours of special labor
@$80 per hour.

Does that sound like the standard?

What did you secure the strips with on the back. 889 tape?

We used high tack atg to get the strip stuck into place then reinforced that with linen tape.
