Detail of cane from yesterday's pull. Thanks to @valenciaglassllc for the extra muscles!
It's taken a couple hours of work to make these by stretching, organizing and re-stretching the colors. I'll be incorporating these into some blown work soon.
...and maybe a short video to help explain the process. 😉

After an amazing class at Corning with Mark Matthews (the marble making maestro), I'm finally getting to practice some of the tricks he taught us.
Working out some cane ideas by making marbles for now, but stay tuned for some new takes on an old series that I've been dying to get back to... 😀

It was awesome to work with @markmatthewsglass @chadbalster @hudakglass @gilbeaux_glass hope to see y'all again soon.
