Dragons Eye Marble by Braden Hammond


" I met the Dragons years ago.... I'm not sure why they came to me?? maybe it's because I play with fire"" said Hammond when asked about his one of a kind art Marbles. Hammond first introduced these marbles to his local collectors in Vancouver, BC Canada in mid 2008. " For all 2008, as soon as a dragons eye came to me it would be gone snatched up by a collector within a matter of days. Not one Dragons eye was ever photographed by us until 2009". Pictured above is Braden Hammond's Dragons Eye Marble 2009. Please click on the link to see more of Hammond's glass art marbles.

For the love of the flame


Flamework by Braden Hammond
I love the flame.... hot....bright....mystical ..... the glass gets hot ........a solid becomes a liquid in 10 second flat....... the control.....the technique.....the gift.
