2006 - Designer Day

I recently ran my first auction where a designer can buy the beads I make in one typical torch day! Here are the results! I plan to do this again before the end of the year! :)

2006 - Designer Day

Donna Millard Beads

I don't make a lot of focals but yesterday I had the urge. I am trying to perfect the foliage and it's coming along nicely, now I need to work on the flowers a little more. I do like this one though...sort of orchid like. And a matching strand of button shaped beads. August, 2006

Moonlight Madness

I suppose if one were mad, as in insane, the night might look like this: distorted, wild, colorful and surreal. Somehow the name just seemed to fit these beads. I like them alot, but they are even better when viewed in hand. The purples are much more vibrant. August 2006.

Beads of the Sea

In July '06 I spent a week in Cape Hatteras, NC and was so inspired by the beauty all I've wanted to do since then is make ocean inspired beads

This set seemed to draw alot of attention. I really like to make sets of beads in vibrant colors that go together but don't really match. I think this set and others like it are very popular because there is so much design potential. Created Aug. 2006

Cleopatra

Nefertiti led me to rediscover Cleopatra. Can you say Cleopatra in your head without adding "Queen of the Nile"? I can't, and I can't say her name without seeing kohl lined eyes, arm bands, and a powerful woman, all in deep dark greens, reds, blues, and yellows. These Cleopatra goddesses are laying on my desk right now, but they aren't lounging. . .they're calling me to pick them up again. The etched ivory is soft and ancient looking, while the unetched green skirt of the larger Cleopatra is shiny and full of depth. And the etching cream I used to help create the "ancient" feel is fairly ancient itself. I bought it about ten years ago, put it away in yet another stash of gotta-have-it-used-it-once-can't afford-to-just-throw-it-away craft supplies, and decided to give it a try instead of running to town to buy more. Enough chitchat, her royal highness is ready for her closeup! 8-31-06 All hail, another queen arrives! Yep, gotta another Cleopatra!

Ganesha, the Hindu god of Success, Peace, & Wisdom

*9-6-06 Just added another Ganesha...This little journey started with a teenager's request for a peace sign and a yin yang sign. Searching for a yin yang sign to look at, I opened John Bowker's book GOD A Brief History. On the way to the Tao section, I saw beautiful Hindu and Buddhist paintings and sculptures. The color combinations were intoxicating, and the textures were so rich. The Hindu god with the elephant's head seemed particularly ornate. He's Ganesha, and he brings success, peace, and wisdom. Voila', another peace sign! Here are my versions of an abstract line drawing of Ganesha:

Nefertiti Ruined

The royal beauty of ancient Egypt has mesmerized me. Search Nefertiti on the web, and you'll likely come up with the picture of the bust of this regal woman's haughty head and elegant shoulders. I've been flitting from one goddess to the next since I finally read The DaVinci Code last month, searching for connections to the past, the mystical, the feminine. There are so many things to choose, but Nefertiti has my attention now. (Cleopatra is calling my name, too.) These are my first attempts at capturing her in glass. All that time at the torch to melt this much glass, a tempermental oxygen concentrator, and my innate impatience led to these ladies with their boiled spots and reduced colors. I couldn't throw them away, though, because even an imperfect Nefertiti imparts an aura of secret knowledge of the ways of the world. Say hello to the ladies and their protective Eye of Horus:
