More Information about Infinity Art Glass by Scott HartleyInfinity Art Glass Paperweights and Sculptures- Handblown Glassworks by Scott Hartley.
Glass is made from a mixture of about seventy percent sand, soda ash, and several other hazardous chemicals. I mix these myself and load them into a special furnace which reaches temperatures of 2,500 degrees. The furnaces run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days each year (natural gas isn't cheap for glass artists). The mixture of glass must melt for 24 hours before it can be used in any piece of art. A blowpipe is used to get gathers or layers of glass from the furnace. They vary in size according to the weight of the glass from a 1/2 inch diameter perfume bottle pipe up to a 1-1/2 inch diameter pipe for pieces that weigh 30 pounds. Glass artists work from the inside out on a piece. The larger the piece, the more layers of glass. Generally, the colored glass, dichroic glass, cane, designs, and detailing is done first using a variety of hot & cold glass chips and colored glass.
