Onessa Posted April 12, 2018 #51 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Our daughter won a fish sculpture at the hot glass show. Oddly enough it was the same piece that I had been taking pictures while the artist was making it a few nights below. So not only does she have a great piece, but we also have a couple dozen photos of it being created from gather to finishing touches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.E.C Posted April 12, 2018 #53 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I love the hot glass shows and especially love them at night as you can see the heat in the glass. I am lucky enough to be the proud owner of a jug with a lip wrap and roman handle that I had watched being made and then won at a raffle a day later. If there is glass show on board and I am"missing" my husband knows where to find me, I never get tired of watching these skilled artisans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbrady Posted April 12, 2018 #58 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Recently off the Equinox. The "Hollywood Hot Glass" doesn't hold a candle to the Corning show. In all of our cruises we've done over the past several years, we never missed a show & this time is was strictly amateur - not professional at all. It was a real disappointment for us. Others may disagree but the Corning folks were trained, had degrees in the art & had several years of experience. This show (& we did the class too) was not at all fun to watch or do - the blind leading the blind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
