This is at the Tacoma museum of glass, it's the best museum on the west coast live glassblowing every single day. The gentleman making the horse is Nick davis a highly talented glass worker
@@bravo666 Tacoma, Washington located in the Pacific Northwest about 30 min south of seattle wa. Hometown of one of the greatest artist of our time Mr. Dale Chihuly.
my mums first job at the age of 13 was glass blowing in the east end of London when she was a kid of 13. She was one of many glass blowers, they used to take turns to spend 30 minutes in the shop window demonstrating their skills so the shoppers would be attracted into the shop to buy.
Man the museum of glass in Tacoma Washington is a beautiful place... they have a livestream of local blowers making stuff on RU-vid that happens pretty often
Glassblowing has a very misleading name although this is technically glassmaking or hot sculpting it just happenes to be that "glassblowing" is the name that caught on even tho blowing the bubble part is a fraction of the glassmaking .
I am fairly sure this is on the Island of Murano, near Venice (Italy, for the geographically impaired). It's really cool to see this video, as I wasn't filming when I saw it in person, and seeing the horse appear is just amazing.
Hey, Sargon. Wasn't meaning to come across as if I was putting the video down. I'm not. I really appreciate it being posted, because I didn't manage to film it when I saw this in person.
One of my instructors can do this and he told me it took him about 6 years to actually master it, so don't think this is easy because of how easy the artist makes it look. Its all about timing, feel, and practice. I am hoping I too can be good enough to make one of these myself.
