A small necklace of lampwork glass beads I made using the "raking" or "feathering technique", a method nearly as old as the earliest glass from Bronze Age. Not in my shop -- just one of those fun things I do between projects on my checklist.

What a great day I had yesterday at Willamette Heritage Center's Sheep to Shawl Festival! Amazing staff and volunteers, smart and engaged visitors / customers, and plenty of fun for all. Here's a small sample of the work I sold yesterday (earrings not shown, as I sold so many pairs!).

I had been feeling poorly for a few days, with a sinus infection, and couldn't muster the energy to get on my torch. But I did get around to assembling some earrings for upcoming shows. Here are some, a few finished, most awaiting completion. Lots of very small beads I had made, silver and copper ear wires, and a few with textured copper and bronze without glass. I'm much better today. Torch time.

This is a single large bead I made while thinking of the Venetian scene paintings by JMW Turner, from his late phase in which he approaches not just impressionism before there was such a thing but almost outright abstraction. You can read all about how I arrived at this in the description: etsy.com/listing/1443198758/ha

Another new piece just added to my Etsy shop. This one uses opaque Murano glass colors. I've added swirls and meandering lines to the base colors, which I think lends something of an Art Nouveau style to them. etsy.com/listing/1440170349/ha

A recent piece, a style I have done for years, and hopefully always will. Have you been making stuff? Any kind of stuff? Share with me! .
