I love new glass products, paints, mica, glitter, frits, you name it, it's all good.

The first thing I do with a new product is make a test swatch so I can see just what I get to play with.

Building a library of product test swatches will serve you well later when you need the exact right color.

News from the Studio


THANK YOU to everyone who watched and participated in the online Recycled Glass Garden Art class, it was a ton of fun, despite having some technical issues.  The video will be available on demand for a small fee in a few days. 

One of the questions from the last day was: 

Q:  "How do you feel about people selling artwork made with your patterns?"

A:  "I think it's great!  I hope you'll use the patterns and ideas as a jumping off point and make them even better.  The patterns themselves are copyrighted, so please don't sell the actual pattern."

I hope your week is creative and filled with amazing experiences, mine will be for sure!

For Salt Lake City residents, I have an upcoming class in-studio, Fusing Glass Birds, if you want to come hang out in person and make some chickens, hummingbirds, and maybe even a penguin or two.

As always, thanks for reading!
