David Patchen - Creating the Hand-Blown Glass

Flattening the piece

When the piece is reheated and moving the right amount, I flatten it using cork paddles. Since the piece is moving, after I flatten it Steve flips it over, I flatten it again and so on until I'm satisfied with the shape.
This is contemporary hand blown glass artist David Patchen in action in his studio creating unique blown glass art through Venetian-style multi-layered cane and murrine.
