2009

Posted by Tracy Jerrell Akhtar on 5/9/2009
I'm going through my stash of lampwork beads and deciding which ones I'm willing to part with. Mosaics, stained glass and painting are taking up most of my time this year. ;) You can expect my lampwork designs back in full force next summer!

I began Lampwork late May of 2005. Something sparked inside of me when I began melting glass and I just took off from there. My mother showed me how to light the torch, melt the glass and wrap it on the mandrel. Other than that I'm self-taught from books and lots of PPP. Up until June 2008 all my work was created on a HotHead torch. Now I'm using a GTT Lynx and LOVE IT!
My work is available on my website, Tracybeads.com and also on Ebay under the id azcowboygirl.
