Fruit of the vine (continued from page 1) Today Bensen and Theofanous create their pumpkins as a team, with Bensen doing the heavier work, beginning with gathering a blob of molten clear glass on the tip of a five- foot blow pipe, and Theofanous choosing the layers (and order) of colors that are fused be- fore the blob is blown into a pumpkin. The originally clear glass blob appears like a red-orange Q-tip as it’s heated, and it’s im- possible to actually see the real color until after the item has cooled. “That’s one of the mysteries. Until it comes out of the kiln the next day, you’re not sure what you have,” Bensen said. A separate blob is fused to the hot pump- kin, then twisted into the team’s “signature stem,” more organic than the stub or the curlicue seen on other glass pumpkins. Mol- ten color is then added to the stem, using a blow torch. Then the piece is tapped off the pipe, smoothed on the bottom and placed in an annealing oven (at only 970 degrees) overnight. If the piece were just left on a rack at room temperature to cool, it would crack, they said. Weber Veronica Bensen and Theofanous met in class at BAGI and have been working as a team for the past year and a half. Over time they’ve worked out their tasks, with Theofanous of- fering design and color input and Bensen the technical expertise — not to mention Dean Bensen rolls the molten glass at the tip the brain and brawn — required to blow the onto a table, constantly moving it to form a glass. spherical shape.

She creates mostly small- and medium-sized pumpkins with her teammate, Nan Fairly of Palo Alto. Duesterberg’s interest in glass dates back to high school, but beginning in 2002 she dis- covered BAGI and also began taking classes at San Jose State University. Soon she won a competition that allowed her to study at the Pilchuck Glass School near Seattle. “I love three-dimensional work. Glass is so incredibly beautiful in the molten state. I like the malleability of it, the flow . . . and its transparency,” she said. While it doesn’t take that long to make a pumpkin, she said, “what takes the longest is to learn how to do them.” She estimates she spent a year, watching and practicing, to
