I've been experimenting with the idea of the sculptured goddess as it seems to have so many different meanings: Some see them as pure erotica, others view them as symbols of fertility, while still others consider them the embodiment of female inner strength and beauty.
I'm currently experimenting with a variety of body shapes for each of my goddesses. I keep shifting the focus, enhancing, minimizing, adding and removing various body parts to see what reaction each change will create.
Still working to sculpt a form I'm completely happy with...

These were initially requested as a custom order and have been pretty popular so i kept making them.
It's been really interesting watching women's reactions to them: younger women tend to automatically pick them up, touch them and rub their bellies. Older women will admire them but usually refuse to actually touch them.
Funny how such a simple shape can cause such a strong reaction...

Welcome to my BeadArtists Gallery!
I discovered the world of glass beadmaking in 2006 and have been exploring the creativity of molten glass since then. My style is heavily influenced by abstract contemporary art mixed with the influence of artifacts from ancient cultures. As I explore and define my personal style, I'm enjoying the seemingly limitless techniques and design options available in hot glass.
My current focus is one-of-a-kind, handshaped or pressed focals ranging from eyepoppingly, bright colours to warm, earthy tones. I've also discovered I'm completely obsessed with the range of effects that can be produced with precious metal leaf, single colour frits and glass powders.
I do accept custom orders, however, as I only torch part-time, a four week lead time is usually necessary. Just send me an email to start the process...
You can find out more about the glass beadmaking process on my website or to purchase any of my current offerings, do check the eBay and Etsy links on my site.
