Masks

(LavenderCreekGlass)
I just love masks, they are simply facinating. Mystical, magical and extremely important within the cultures where they are still used. I have several ideas for mask designs and this is where I will post them.

Focals - Volume Two * Featured Page *

Focals - Volume Two

(LavenderCreekGlass)
My original focals gallery is getting a bit full so I've opened a new one for my latest work. My style is also continually changing and evolving and doesn't seem to fit with the earlier pieces.

Flowers Flowers Flowers

(BarbSvetlick)
I am in a race with Mother Nature to see who has the best box of crayons! All of my flowers are made on the mandrel in one piece. I use nothing but soft glass and a lot of enamels.

Coral Dreams

(MoniqueMichele)
I love these!!! I have pulled some color canes and used raku and reduction colors.The effect on most of these is one of a kind since I didn't follow a recipee, I just mix what comes to me at the moment. I like the shapes, so far I try to stay away from mold shapes or standard shapes to give my beads a little character and to allow for designers to have acces to unique shapes.Some people think its a mistake or that I can't make a perfect bead, but if you look at my other work, you'll see that I can place dots perfectly and I can make a perfect shape...this irregularity is what I want at this moment. And believe me...I"M LOVING IT !!!!

(Artificer)
I've long been a fan of H.R. Giger and other artists in the biomechanical style. This series of focals is my attempt to capture the same feeling in glass.
Goddess Collection * Featured Page *

Goddess Collection

(LavenderCreekGlass)
I've got a goddess gallery on the Glass artists site, but I never added one here. You can find my earlier goddess beads in my Focals gallery and my Woman gallery. Since my style is also changing and I have so many now, I thought they needed their own gallery :)
Ancient Totems * Featured Page *

Ancient Totems

(GizzazDesigns)
Among traditional native Americans and other tribal peoples, totems are the enduring symbols that allow these peoples to explore mysteries of life and the spirit world.

When Pigs Fly...

(Gelly)
When pigs fly, they often use modes of transportation that many aren't aware of! These cute lil pigs will be up for adoption on ebay from 8/20 thru 8/27, all starting at .99!!!!

Keep your eyes peeled for more pigs in this series!

Prairie Sunset Organics - a color study * Featured Page *

Prairie Sunset Organics - a color study

(GeneseeGlassworks)
This was the perfect study to let the glass be what it is.
Every single bead was made the exact same way and using extreme heat, each one evolved into its own unique creation.
I really loved how these colors work together and I'm not sure I'm done with messing around with the combo just yet!

Masks - Another Approach * Featured Page *

Masks - Another Approach

(LavenderCreekGlass)
These are also masks but my focus is a bit different. I am going for a more realistic feel to the facial detail. Almost like a 3D portrait. They are not as flamboyantly detailed as my other mask style, the facial expressions and fine detail are meant to do most of the work in these pieces.

(Hippkittybeads)
I am a former handmade purse designer and I've always been inspired by fabrics so these tiny handbag sculptures were a natural progression for me. Oct. 2006

Lampwork Beads

(MaryCLockwood)
I'm a full time lampworker focusing mainly on florals and small creatures such as frogs and fish.

These gallery pages represent some of my own favorite pieces from the last few years.

Hope you enjoy!

TOGGLES

(mperaza)
Here are some pictures of my glass toggles. I create these with the same attention to detail as I do my beads. They are great as a focal, all by themselves, or as a compliment to other lampwork beads. These are more secure than some of the silver and gold toggles as they do not come apart as easily. Very comfortable to wear and what a statement they make! Thanks for looking!
2007 Lady Death Custom Set * Featured Page *

2007 Lady Death Custom Set

(NaosGlass)
I had a request to make some beads based on a Lady Death comic book cover. I went abstract and used the texture of Lady Death's hair and the color scheme, minus gold and blue, to come up with this set.

(Beadnik)
An experiment: I grinded an etched and slightly nugget-shaped bead. The facets are NOT completely round but do have a little twist ... to make your eyes think.
