A Moment of Silent Contemplation

In a moment of silent contemplation, she stands before you.

I torched, annealed, cleaned, and put together this glass sculpture in my southern Illinois studio, but I'll be darn if I can tell you what she'd contemplating. Aren't we all that way sometimes, though? Silently contemplating life. . .could be good, could be bad, could be happy, could be sad. We stand with our heads bowed, thinking "where do I go from here?" It never seems to be a waste of time, either, does it? That's why I like this one-- she seems to know some secrets that I could discover, too, if I only stood still long enough to contemplate them.

Thanks for stopping by to visit with AngelinaBeadalina! I'm really just plain ol' Angie or Ang, but the catchy name does suit me in the sense that I'm a motormouth who loves to play with words almost as much as I love to play with glass! You can find me here at BeadArtists.org, in my Etsy shop, or in my daily blog. You can get links to those places at www.angelinabeadalina.com (click on it above). Please pardon the use of my "official" website as a traffic control signal at the moment-- at least, that's what it makes me think of when I look at it. . . lots of directions to other places where there are updates on a daily basis. Tech-stuff would not be one of those things that I love or that comes naturally to me ;) Well, enough rambling for now, come on in, look around. . . have fun exploring my glass experiments and ideas. Peace, Ang

My absolute favorite...
And for everyone reading this, I have to tell you - she is SO much more gorgeous in person, the pics are great but when you can see every nuance of color and every stroke and the delicacy of the stringer application for the flowers and she just totally takes your breath away!

Angie, I will be singing your praises for many moons to come for this piece and all the other pieces that you've created that I now have the privilege to own :)
