These incredible paintings, the work of the California artist named Loren Stump (Loren Stump). Lauren makes his paintings on the technique called "Murrine", which was invented 4,000 years ago in the Middle East, and later it was practically forgotten until Venetian glass windows were revived. To begin with, it makes multi-colored glass rods, which later imposes one on the other and melts all the stack in a special oven until the glass sausage is thick with a thumb. Cutting one round-headed such "sausage" you will get a small picture that can be used at your discretion, for example, you can make a beautiful pendant.
All these pictures are created in a very unusual way.
"Murrine" is a complicated technique, in the process of which glass rods melt together, and then cut as loaf of bread to reveal the complex patterns and shapes.
Murrine technique appeared in the Middle East about 4,000 years ago, Lauren Stump improved its MURRINE technique over the past 35 years. Now he can create whole portraits and paintings in glass until they are cutting.
Just stunning!
