Watch me lay down some glass stringer on a lampwork bead.
Working on some video editing today for an online class. Hope everyone is having a good week

Playing with some glass twistie cane. It's very pretty and satisfying to watch.
Hope everyone is having a good week.

When it's too hot to torch, I draw kitties doing people things. These cats are all getting their workout done in their own ways. Some prefer weights, some prefer working at the yoga mat, some like calisthenics, some enjoy cardio and some enjoy pizza and icecream.

These lampwork glass marbles came out of my kiln today.
What are you all making?

Handmade lampwork glass kitty who is happy about all the sushi. This cat has been drawn with glass stringer freehand in the flame with details using murrine. The sushi pieces are all made from murrine as well

Cute cat lampwork marble with butterflies and blossoms.
This one has been an exercise in combining stringer with murrine. I've been doing more and more prep work and creating things in multiple stages.

Working on another lampwork cat marble. This one will feature a black kitty yellow eyes drawn in stringer with murrine face details. I've got a summer theme in mind with sunflowers, blossoms and butterflies.

Not my usual medium, but we can all use some silly watercolor cats in our life.
I tried to capture the different characters at a gym, including the yoga influencer, the lifting gym bros, the cardio fiends and the ones that don't want to be there.
Hope you like

What other swear words should i make in glass? These lampwork marbles were fun to make. I tried out some more cutesy script and elements. The pink one makes me think of Barbie.
Of course, I forgot to get a proper photograph/video

Hobnail marbles are self care for me this month. I have more than I need, but they are satisfying to make. So, I make them.
I've been rather ambiguous about social media lately

Somebody's got a case of the Mondays. Is it you?
I havent made a lampwork marble with swear words in a little bit since the graffiti style became popular. Might be something to play with. Maybe something with happy 💐 and 🌈

Time for some sparkly lampwork glass goldstone.
I havent had a lot to share lately.
YT videos have taken a backseat at the moment, but there are still quite a few there from last year that I hope you will find value from.

Same, I haven't used this app a ton, so im still learning. I'll see if I can figure it out though

Custom lampwork glass music marble from yesterday.
Sometimes I get custom requests for very specific songs that I might have never heard of. It's an interesting way for me to broaden my music tastes.

I'm open to tradesies. I have a small marble collection I gotta feed and build up

Someone's got a case of the Mondays.
These lampwork graffiti marbles are made from swirls of brick colored glass with a spritz of enamels. I've drawn the brick pattern in white with hair thin stringer, encased in a heavy layer of clear and added graffiti text of some favorite words.

Just a standard reveal reel for my lampwork glass marbles Ive been working on. What other colors do you want to see?
Happy Monday

I think it might be time to make some new glass twistie cane. What do you think?
I love this color combo of pink and purple. And the sparkly goldstone layer is *chef's kiss*
Hope everyone is having a good week

Thanks for checking Them out and enjoy your weekend.

Take a moment to watch some relaxing lampwork glass dots. One humble dot can be simple, but many can make an impressive pattern. The process can be meditative and we could all use some meditation lately.

Spring time is rainbow time. So I better get started on some colorful lampwork glass rainbow marbles.
Happy Monday everyone

"Charlie and the chocolate Factory" was my first Roald Dahl book as a kid. I think of the everlasting gobstoppers when I look at these lampwork hobnail marbles. They were fun to make, so I might make more. They are up for grabs

Just some satisfying glass twistie nipping for your Wednesday.

What do you think of my cute kitty lampwork glass marble?
The kitty is drawn with stringer and the sunflowers are made from murrine. It's all on a silver ladder blue background with many layers of clear to magnify.

Recycling content because I have been very lax about recording working footage lately.
But this older footage is pretty much the same as what I've been making lately. Restocking some lampwork music beads as they've sold.

Do you like daylight savings time? I'm happy to feel like there's more sunlight available

This lampwork glass marble has a pretty spring blossom silhouette motif over swirls of blue and goldstone sparkles.

New variation of my graffiti lampwork marble. Thoughts?
I hope everyone is taking care of themselves and their chosen family and friends. Be kind and do your best. That's been my mantra lately through

Just keep making happy little trees. Mine are made with thin pieces of glass called stringer that act as my paintbrushes. Make trees in whatever medium you've got available.
Happy wednesday everyone.
