Awesome installation project!

I just love the whole concept and work and love involved

in pulling an installation of this magnitude off. 

 Kudos to Carrie Fertig and all involved. 

How neat!  Samma ;-D

Experimentation and Newness ;-?

Well, you know how sharing I can be. 

I shared a cup of coffee with my keyboard...oops. 

Since the computer was bought in 2004 and getting

goofier by the day, I went and bought a new laptop ;-D

Ummm.....when did they do away with the

 numbers pad and move all the letters around? 

Learning curve straight ahead.

   Torched at the studio with Lisa yesterday and

 it's basically the land of soft things...including glass. 

I made these marblse that garaged all day but  not ramped

 up to strike or anneal.  I thought it might be interesting to

see boro before kiln striking and after.  They are in todays'

kiln batch...so the after pics can come tomorrow.

  Here's the before shots:

More is More after all ;-D

Lisa Atchison, Jari Sheese and I own Indy Flame Art Studio. 

Sharon Owens owns Inspired Fire Studio and Gallery

(about an hour north of here) in Lafayette. 

Our studios compliment each other beautifully. 

I was recently honored to be asked to torch with

Sharon at her Holiday Open House.  What a great time. 

Here's a few pic from our Curly Girl Flame Fest, torching for the crowd ;-D

Side shots of all in a group, so you can

This is my first of many attempts at a wine bottle stopper. How fun!!!
