Sculpting in glass has always been a very challenging and delicate form of sculpting simply because it is not an easy task to handle shards and making something out of these pieces. If one is an artist and would like a little challenge, then it is suggested that he try to make a glass sculpture Alberta. If he would want to but does not know where to start, then here are some ideas on how to.
Now take note that this kind of activity is quite dangerous because one may get cut by some of shards that he is using. That is why he will be needing some equipment and some supplies that will be able to keep him from getting hurt. Some of the things that he will be needing would be some goggles, some gloves, a torch, a kiln, and a graphite paddle.
So to start of, one should first put on his goggles and his gloves so that his hands and eyes will not get hurt. Some other things to wear in order to be protected would be some long sleeves and a short apron so that the shards will not go to the body. After all of this is done, then one may now on the torch and start with the building.
Now when the torch has already been lit, then the next step would be to take a little piece and hold it lightly. This is where the dangerous part begins because one has to now point the torch right at the small piece in order to make it melt a little bit. The goal of this is to make a small ball shape thing out of it.
The next thing to do would be to create the base by using some graphite paddles. Now before one would create the actual sculpture, one should first create the base so that the figure will have something to stand on. The graphite paddles are the things that will be used in order to make the base properly.
Once the base has already been made, then one may now continue making the rest of the figure with a little bit more glass balls. To add to the figure, one can now use some tools and some other pieces in order to make the figure. The first thing to do would be to preheat the kiln until it is already quite hot.
Once the kiln has already been heated, then the next step would be to use some tweezers in order to manipulate the hot pieces of glass. While the tweezers are used for pulling the pieces to manipulate them, the graphite poles will be used once again to straighten the figure. When the figure has already been created, place it in the kiln for it to form.
Slowly reduce the flame by ninety degrees in every one hour. That way, the glass sculpture Alberta will not break but will slowly form and harden up. When the sculpture has already cooled down, then it is already steady and may now be considered complete.
