What’s Up?

 

December 1, 2005

It’s almost a new year.  I’ve gone through and deleted most of my old posts.  I’m not sure blogging is for ‘me’.  I don’t think you’re reading here to see a bunch of personal info so I’ve always kept it fairly glass related.  I will continue with updates when there is something worth adding.  Other wise if you wonder what’s up, have a question, etc, drop me a line.  I’m always glad to hear from you.

 

Here’s some pictures of my holiday themed work.

A few have asked for the link to my other pictures so I’ll post it for now.  The progress  is being posted here, mostly for our son who is away at college to see.  As the studio begins to take shape I’ll post a few more pictures here ~ but that will take a little big longer. J

Construction started on our building last week.  I have some pictures up on another page.  The one of interest to my bead friends is this one:

 

The bench is going to run from the tall post on the front wall to the corner.  J

Here’s what several hundred dollars buys in the way of imported glass.  30 pounds to be specific, mostly German.  Some Italian.

Wow.  Time flies.  I’ve been working on my logo.  I’m trying to learn Photoshop and Photoshop Elements to improve my pictures and the site. I don’t want to alter the pictures, I just want a realistic representation of what I’ve made.  I’m coming closer, but still not there.  Spring is inching closer which means ground breaking will start on the building which will have my new studio.  Maybe as early as next week.  When the studio part is under way, I’ll take pictures and post.  Maybe we’ll do something to that eventually helps someone else in their design process.  Hopefully there won’t be a lot of things to add to my don’t page. J  The forecast is for 40 degrees today.  If it is dry I’ll spend some time at my torch.  Pictures will follow.

I nearly forgot to post this.  I’ve found a frit business I just love.  I understand she is similar to Val Cox.  Glass Diversions has testers links posted on her website so you see what you can create.  She has wonderful packaging and fast service.  If you go visit her she has a forum for questions.  If you write her, tell her I sent you. ;) 

 

(I forgot to ask for permission before posting her on my links page.  I’m hoping it’s ok.) J

Several of us from ISLAGA have started a general glass discussion group.  Northern Indiana Glass Artist forum is now another great place to ask questions about nearly anything glass related.  Feel free to drop in at either forum.  We’d love to hear from you.  Anyone paying close attention, I caught my error from the other day.  The Corina contest did not say she was coming to the winner, I was just dreaming.
