Tools to actually make money onlineAt first, Young’s sculptures may seem simple, minimalistic and raw. But then you realize just how much work has been put into these highly detailed works of art, which required many hours of planning and sketching. No high-tech equipment is involved in the creation process, and each of the pieces are “hand-drawn, hand-cut and handcrafted” from the finest glass.
“I love watching the two dimensional shapes evolve into three-dimensional creations and the different way the light plays inside the glass,” writes Young. “I love the liquid qualities the glass brings with it. It enables me to play with lighting and watch the glass react.”
