\"sabine-spiesser-glass-shards\"<\/a>Here is a little more autumn color for the week. I think this is a brooch although it doesn’t say. I did have something else in mind from the ever-exploring Sabine Spiesser<\/a> but then I alighted upon this little experiment while enjoying her Flickr photos and a couple of things about it caught my eye.<\/p>\n

I find this interesting not only because it’s a faux textured glass technique and yummy colors but also because of a comment Sabine made in regards to it:<\/p>\n

“Unfortunately I noticed that alcohol inks fade in bright light in Pardo clay. I left an old piece in a bright spot where it gets some\u00a0sunshine\u00a0and after about 4 months all colours except for red were gone. That was quite a shock. I have to rethink what I am doing.”<\/em><\/p>\n

It makes me wonder if this is just a problem with Pardo, or all translucents or alcohol inks in general. I’m going to do some research and then my own tests. I’ll post my results in our newsletter, where all such tips usually land in my world. If you aren’t on our twice monthly newsletter list, you’re missing out on tips, community news, first sales announcements, and some of our magazine news. You can sign up on the left hand side of our website’s home page<\/a>. In the meantime, enjoy a view of Sabine’s work on her Flickr pages<\/a>\u00a0and website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Inspirational Challenge of the Day: <\/strong>Try something different with a faux technique you like to do. If it’s faux stone, create forms you don’t usually see them in or texture them in a way that would be near impossible in a real stone. If it’s metal, create something organic-looking, like a silver flower or a copper pod. Just because we can mimic nature’s material doesn’t mean we need to recreate it only in the forms that nature presents it. Let go and try something different.<\/p>\n
