Glass Blown Turtle

I am lucky to be part of the MIT glass blowing lab where I get to make all sorts of cool things out of glass! I've currently taken the beginner class twice (Fall 2022 & Fall 2023) and the intermeditate class once (Spring 2024).

The last week of begineer is always a project week where you can make anything you want. I decided to make a turtle.
