Who Is Ben Young´s Stunning Glass Sculpture?
Stunning Glass Sculptures by Ben Young Capture Ocean's Beauty

Self-taught artist Ben Young has been making beautiful sculptures from glass for over 10 years. Living in Sydney, Australia, Ben Young creates sculptures of ocean waves and watery landscapes by layering multiple sheets of hand cut glass. Although the extreme precision and detail of his sculptures may lead you to assume that he uses high-tech machinery to build his pieces, Young's works are hand drawn and handcrafted, layer on layer!

Here are some of the works of this popular glass sculptor. You can find more on his Website and Facebook page.

    John Steuart Curry's Tornado Over Kansas

    He is known for his still life paintings. The piece located at the Muskegon Museum of Art is a small arrangement of fruit on a table. The background is a plain grey color and the table that the fruit is all sitting on is a dark greyish black marble one. In the center of the picture is the display of fruit. The arrangement of fruit appears to have a light shone on it, causing it to stand out even more against the dark table and background. There are both white and black grapes, peaches, a pear, two plumbs, some small red berries and some leaves on a stem that I am assuming are part of a grape vine. Some of the leaves are completely green, others are like those in the fall that are on their way from green to red. Every color is present in the picture is present. White grapes, the red berries and the red on the edges of the leaves, orange in the leaves and on the peaches, yellow in the leaves and the peaches, the green stems and the leaves sprouting from them, blue and purple in the grapes that fades into the same shade of black that is the…

    Harbor Place: A Short Story

    An extremely talented one. He was accepted to the Maryland Institute on a full scholarship. His specialty, like David's in the book, was incredible, massive, mixed media paintings of angels. When I met him, he was in the middle of four pieces, each ten feet tall by five feet wide. Each one depicted an archangel; Michael, Gabriel, Lucifer, and Raphael. He mixed paint with unusual found objects such as car parts, nails, glass, broken pieces of tile and wood. I remember he'd made Michael's halo out of a hubcap. They were…amazing. Transcendent. To this day, I've seen nothing like them." Cas couldn't help the wistful tone in his…

    Triangle Bridge Over Water Essay

    One example of this is the architecture of the bridge. There is an art and science behind how the design of the bridge was laid out. It had to be sturdy enough to be more than just art but to be able to support people using it as a bridge. To be able to support the weight of people using it the bridge had to sit on a steel support frame above the water. Then the parts holding on the tinted mirrored windows are made out of a light aluminum, most likely to cut down on the weight. This brings out another aspect to what Dan’s main focus was as an artist. He tends to use mirrors in many of his projects and this would be one of them. Although these are not traditional mirrors they do represent a mirror like object, in this case a mirrored plastic. These mirrors in his…

    Stephen Glass Shattered Glass

    It almost boggles the mind exactly how in depth the journalistic verification process goes in an effort to bring the public true information; the amount of editors it takes, how many revisions the writer makes and the number of times each article is read and reread before print. There were many reasons why Stephen Glass was able to get away with his falsified articles and made up sources. The movies gives us the reason that he was “entertaining” as Chuck put it and everyone just liked him and chose to believe that he wrote good, legit stories. That was biases on all the editors and peer writers’ part. The reason he got through the source screen process was because he…

    Stephen Glass Shattered Glass

    With his mouth wide open in disbelief, a child stood by and watched his sibling being handed an expensive toy without reason. Next you would expect the child to argue about how unfair it was to give his sibling the toy when he didn't deserve it. If we were to recreate a scenario with that same ending today, the spoiled sibling would be a journalist who is being rewarded for telling lies, and the open-mouthed angry child would be his former co-worker's who believed in him.…
