@Regrann from @craftscouncil - Crafts Council Directory maker Amanda Simmons (@dahliauniverse) in her studio in Corsock, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. "I make kiln formed glass vessels, playing with gravity in the kiln. Manipulating mass, heat, colour and time. I aim to create complex, elusive work that has intense colour and pattern which reacts to the light it is placed in. I finish my pieces using many cold working processes to shape and mark the glass including sandblasting, hand lapping, diamond point and wheel engraving.Recent themes include researching the use of glass as a medium to investigate the physical properties of our universe." #makersstudio #ccdirectory #makersgonnamake #glass #kiln #studio #colour #craft #crafts - #regrann

Tonight from my #livepainting at @makersstudio had a great time painting. Thanks to you guys who made it out and to @beardbailey for hooking it up with the solid tunes. You can still check out the painting and the rest of the show through Monday. Tearing down on Tuesday. Thanks to the crew at makers for being über rad and giving me the opportunity. It was rad. 😎 #rochester #makersstudio #shawneehill

I promise, we were both happy. Hahahah. Me and my grams by the sculpted hand project she inspired And helped with. She's the best. The main person that inspired me to make art and travel. So happy she was able to see the show! 💛 #makersstudio #shawneehill #Fernweh #artshow #rochester #jeannesinged

Here's another shot from my show #Fernweh. Photo taken by @rinamiriam thanks man! If you didn't get a chance to see the show it'll be up all month at @makersstudio #shawneehill #makersstudio #rochester #artshow

I have to go back and take some pictures but here's a snippet from my work at @makersstudio and a closeup of the insane wall installation. I created it with the help of 3 people nailing in like what had to be over 1000 nails and spent 14 hours stringing it three times. It was insanity but at first glance it's just a subtle element that you don't necessarily pick up on just how crazy it was to install lol. Just super happy with that detail and how the show all came together. It just feels good to have your plans pan out pretty close to what you hoped for. Check it out if you haven't yet and thanks to everyone who came out last night. #Shawneehill #rochester #artshow #fernweh #makersstudio
