Lee3 Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 (edited) Just found an area here whilst wandering around the forums and thought I should make the most of promoting my side line ( tarot related ?hmmm however I do see my items adorning the display cabinets of shops that do stock a wide range of tarot in the near future ) and I guess gives a little more of myself to the people I am making connections with so we are all winning 🙂 it’s been a project in the background for a few years but this year I have invested the time and money to get things physically started . its pretty much Lampwork/glassblowing on a smaller scale jewellery / spheres / marbles/ nebulas But check it out if you think it might be your thing https://www.instagram.com/river_glassworks/ https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/RiverGlaSsWoRkS Edited May 11, 2019 by Lee3 Pictures
McFaire Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 How beautiful! They look like little universes that you can gaze into, searching for truths. Like the cards.
AJ-ish/Sharyn Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 looks like the images from NASA, beautiful work, I wish you well marketing it!
joy Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 OMG, love them!!! Used to make glass beads, it is very addictive! ❤️
Lee3 Posted May 11, 2019 Author Posted May 11, 2019 Thankyou everyone for the comments , I’m hoping to move onto larger , memorial type pieces with ashes but I’m more than happy with how the creations are evolving
Saturn Celeste Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 The picture of the cat with the collar reminds me of Men in Black when the cat had the Galaxy around his neck in a collar!! Your work is stunning!!
Raggydoll Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 Do you take custom orders? I mean, if there is a desire for a specific color/feel to it? I had something in mind, thats why I’m asking 😊. And do you ship outside of UK?
Lee3 Posted May 11, 2019 Author Posted May 11, 2019 @Raggydoll it would be a privilege to create something specific for yourself , let me know your ideas and I can create what you like
Arabella Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 Oh my! These are just beautiful. As @McFaire said - like tiny universes. Your work is stunning @Lee3, thank you for showing us.

Guest Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 Omg I'm a space nerd and I just about drooled over my phone.
Lee3 Posted June 11, 2019 Author Posted June 11, 2019 @rixis thank you. Space and astronomy is a big part of my inspiration and technique I’m working towards are little galaxy nebula type designs . Not only aesthetically but the elements I’m working with in the glass gold/silver/and other striking type glasses and how they react with the flame chemistry to produce some of the most out of this world colours in different lights . It sure is a science as well as an art that I’m trying to learn
Guest Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 @Lee3 that sounds so cool! I understand and yet don't at the same time. But also at the same time my brain says wwoooooaaaahhhh. I can't believe that just glass, metals, and striking patterns/numbers? make those cute little nebulas. It's kind of simple but not. Have you've read about that other galaxy glassmaker? I forgot his name, but I remember seeing a video of him talking about how his craft developed. Your phrasing sounds similar to his (for how you work with your craft).
