Not Anatomy

Since we are not ready to post another Anatomy, I thought I might do something about glass fusing. Frances bought me a kiln for Christmas for glass painting. Glass painting is an art unto itself that requires new skills. Mixing paint, application by brush and textures and shading. The last step is to fire the painted glass in the kiln. Another new skill to be learned! Learning never seems to end. Anyway, to learn about the kiln and its operation, I assembled some scrap pieces of glass and fired them. The picture are first attempts that were basically OK. Some later pieces failed altogether! Fortunately I have lots of scrap glass.
