CRACKED EP. 57 Kaleidoscope Craze with Lindsey Thacker

It's the 56th episode of Cracked!! 
Today we're headed to Charlotte NC to dive into the Psychedelic, colorful and wonderful world of Lindsey Thacker, AKA Luxey Flux. Known for her mind-bending designs and kaleidoscopic color palettes,  Lindsey has a talent for seemlessly weaving glass of all different textures and tones, opacity levels and iridescence together into a technicolor maximalism delight. Today we discuss her style, the inspiration behind her mesmerizing works, and some important life lessons she’s learned from the craft along the way.

Join me as I crack it all wide open…

To see more of Lindsey’s work, her instagram is @luxeyflux and mine is @runaglassworks.  For the Patreon members Lindsey made a gorgeous pattern for all, there’s no drawing it’s just up for all the members. And in addition to the pattern she also included a colored version for color inspo which I think is so cool! 

Please please send pics if you go for it😍 In addition to the exclusive pattern, Lindsey also made a Spotify playlist just for the Cracked listeners to jam out to while Cracked isn’t playing!
