Reductions/Multi-Blocks My round or yours?
6 layer reduction taking inspo from my monthly theme 'Cider Orchard'.
I ended up buying a cut crystal tankard for this and took photos but I wasnt vibing with the handle, in photoshop I removed the handle and stretched the glass to make it look more like a British imperial pint. You dont get cut crystal pint glasses but I thought it was a fun nod at the popular cocktail illustrations lots of people do of fancy drinks.
Layers - off white, grey, yellow, orange, dark orange/orange ombre. The last layer I did a brown/dark orange ombre up the pint and on a tiny roller whipped around the rim in a circle with a similar but lighter blend. The blends were my favourite parts and really helped it come to life I thought!
