    Watch as Simone Crestani demonstrates for his class, Developing Your Idea in Boro, which focused on using borosilicate glass to create many different kinds of objects and sculptures.
    Simone Crestani is an artist, a designer, and a glassblowing master. He was born in Marostica, in the region of Venice, where he still lives and works. The privilege of living near Venice, a glass capital, has given him the opportunity to make frequent visits to Venetian glass masters. He started working with glass in 2000...www.cmog.org/bio/simone-crestani

    Thank you for sharing these videos, and especially this one! This young man is incredibly talented and a joy to watch! Videos like these are an inspiration, and spark the interest of others who might not have thought about glass work before.
    Bravo!
    Glass is a cleaner resource than the plastics used today. I miss having a glass factory nearby! Hopefully people will come back to glass!
    As an art medium, it's also quite beautiful too! This starfish is incredible!
    Great to really see the finished product in this video as well!
    (Some of the videos don't show what's being made, thus are a bit tough to follow. In this video, you can see it coming alive... In the videos where the final product is shown, in some cases before, it helps immensely to be able to follow. Enjoying the final piece is a great deal of the enjoyment, and being able to see it for minute or two sides in the enjoyment and learning experience.
    Again, Bravo!
    I'd love to see a show in the US (Los Angeles, California would be great!) featuring Simone Crestani and his student's & coullegue's work. Live demos would be a great recruiting tool for colleges & schools that teach glass art as well.
    I hope to see products, especially food, back in glass too!
    Time to bring glass back!

      You probably do! Remember this guy has had 15 years of making not only great things, but also making mistakes as well. This is how we get better at what we do!
      This video certainly makes me want to try flamework. I'm starting with a small kiln & glass fusion.
      This video is certainly an inspiration to try this as well. Before this, I was under the impression that to blow glass you had to have the huge furnace, etc. This clearly shows that you can do this kind of work over a flame. (I guess it was because we had a glass recycling factory near us, and they had these absolutely huge furnaces).
      I found a stained glass store near me that has the torches and classes too!
      I have a kiln on the way & once I learn a bit & experiment with fusing, I think this will be next!
      I'm sure you have it in you! Watching others do it can aid a lot in learning too!
      I lost fine dexterity in one hand due to an injury, but I've learned to work around it, use tools to help (finding often they would've helped anyhow, and being asked - Where'd you get that? & others find them helpful too! We could all use a few extra hands!)
      There's a guy in Oregon that has RUclips videos too, that is also a master glass blower, and I believe teaches there, who is also great to watch. He has a video demo he did away from his studio and he talks about having a magnet board for his tools, a place to put his tubes to cool in his work bench (I think he says a wood block with holes in it... I imagine screwed into the bench, or a heavy enough block that it won't fall over)
      Where there's a will, there's a way!
      I had a deaf student years ago in one of my classes. I was a little concerned as to how that would go. When I saw them chatting away under water, back before SCUBA com systems were affordable, I learned a valuable lesson from her. One person's "disability" can be make them FAR more capable than the average person! Where we had several hand signals for up, down, stop, OK, danger, etc., this gal & her diving buddy had their entire vocabulary available to them!
      Anyhow, I'll bet you have in you not only the ability, but something no one else has... Your vision!
      Go for it! We only live this lifetime once!

    I'm looking at this form at the 22:28 mark and thinking that this could be a beautiful aquarium for a betta if it were deep enough. Also, a wonderful little flower if it were on a much smaller scale

    Oh god that bit at the end with the claw was scary.

    very cool, wellmade and technically very difficult. But object in itself is a bit wack to do on a torch, you could do it in lampwork for much less time and same result or better... color application etc...

    Did I miss the part where he put a hole in this thing??! please tell me I missed that part..

    Is it more cost effective to be using the method he is doing as opposed to using a kiln? It seems like a lot of fuel is being used for this project.

      +Fr_Francis Hein I don't know how you would make this object in a kiln - hollow sealed shapes with a fire polished surface are beyond any kiln working I know of. I think it has to be made at the torch.
