Those yellows are SO cheerful!

Great work, as always.

Thanks Barbara! Have you been making any more beads lately?
And I have to rave about your DH's web hosting company - such excellent
service compared to what I had before!

It was strange - the class with Leah was so intense,
and her style is so defined, that I was overwhelmed for awhile and
somehow in my mind felt like I SHOULD be making florals, having taken
her class.

This made me think of breaking down the shapes she uses to make florals. You
know, a swoop here, a dot there.....what could they be made to create on an
applied-_____ bead? Plants, animals, weather, foods, vehicles, furniture, you
name it?

Yup - I just came back in after making some of MY floral beads, but
using some of the ways she applies glass. And next time I am in the
studio i think I play with some of the color layering ideas I got from
the course. I'm back having a blast!

Whew - what a strange 6 weeks it's been!!! I went to Leah Fairbanks
class, came back awed and inspired, then didn't have time to do
anything for 6 weeks. After a year of looking for part-time work, the
floodgates finally opened and for awhile I had three part-time jobs
going. As I claim that each time you start a new job you temporarily
lose 10 -15 IQ points, I was really struggling :-). And dead bone
TIRED! And I was afraid my muse had packed up and left town. So I quit
the least well-paid and most tiring job and am back to having a life
and beads again. And my own studio to make them in - what an amazing
feeling! I'll be sharing it with a young friend who lives in an
apartment, and am quite excited about that too. I hadn't realized until
I started working in my own place how much I had been censoring myself
working in a studio where I was always on display. So I've taken a few
weeks to play and make really wild, and often quite disastrous beads.
And then yesterday I finally got my groove back. I have been asked to
teach beadmaking at Red Deer College this summer so I'm getting ready
for that - an amazing honor given that I took my first bead-making
class there two years ago. This summer Bandhu Scott and Beau Anderson
and some other really awesome lampworkers are teaching there - should
be an amazing experience.

Things are coming together. Oh, and about the PMC grapes - they didn't
work - back to the drawing board on that.

Andhoo - sort of a long-winded way to say hi all, and to tell you about
my new auctions - the links should appear below. Thanks as always for
having a look!
