Saturns

With my Saturn series I combine a Planet with contiguous, concentric rings of colorless, ruby, or New Mexico glass. This continuation of the Planet theme involves a rigorous procedure that requires the help of all of my assistants and hours of focused labor. Saturns provide a counterpoint to smooth round globes. Creating the rings in glass turned out to be way more difficult than I ever imagined, yet they convey the sense of whirling motion that I wanted.
