James Akers<p>I made another neon doodle I have been wanting to make for awhile. A mini rasta doodle. </p><p>Blacklight is notoriously difficult (and expensive) but sorta fun when you get used to it. Of course Emerald, a usual nemesis of mine, was acting up. I shouldn't have left behind the imperfection from the emerald cracking the first time. <br>Long story short it isn't the kiln pumped 9 headed coil of black and colorful spikes that I wanted- but I did learn a few things. I want less green. Perhaps un-coated (transparent) emerald, or if I can find a larger diameter of emerald. I also want to use Saffron- the golden shade of yellow tubing instead of the easier to work with Sunflower. The saffron will make it more challenging, but a better warm white in the end. And bigger red sections. <br>I gotta make some acrylic box files. And a few more doodles. </p><p><a href="https://expressional.social/tags/neon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>neon</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/nyc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nyc</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/brooklyn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>brooklyn</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/Brownsville" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Brownsville</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/glass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>glass</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/sculpture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sculpture</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/handmade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>handmade</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/muranoglass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>muranoglass</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/softglass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>softglass</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/color" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>color</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/rasta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rasta</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/blacklight" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>blacklight</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/blackglass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>blackglass</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/smallart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>smallart</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/forsale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>forsale</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/doodle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>doodle</span></a></p>
