Dave Vogt, the glassblowing instructor at the Mesa Art Center, demonstrated a “roman bottle” which is a technique for quickly making a long-necked bottle. I must have made a half dozen of these, only two of which came out without cracking. I figured if I kept practicing, I’d get it. I got frustrated after a while and went on to easier things. I’m sure I’m doing something wrong. This one turned out,  however, and I fixed an uneven neck by altering it to a fluted top. It looks almost like it has an invisible drawstring pulling it tight.
