April 2010

I planted some of these cone flowers last summer and took several pictures of them. I love how the petals "weep" from the top.

Field of Coneflowers I and II (diptych)

I painted these on much larger canvas' than I have before. I was concerned about how they'd turn out, but I love them! It's a diptych (one photo split into two). They look great together, but can stand alone. together: 24" x 24" acrylic on canvas $795

Catching Up and Fused Glass!

Second Project- playing with reactive glass Sushi Plate and Bowl I realized this past week that I haven't been keeping my website updated. This has been one LOOOONNNGGG winter! I haven't painted as much as usual, or as much as I'd like to, but I have been taking some glass fusing classes, which I LOVE!!! I'm so obsessed and totally ready to buy a kiln; however, my husband thinks we need to clean out the garage first, or something silly like that...whatever! During my first class at Carolina Stained Glass in Durham, NC, we learned some basics. Cutting, kiln temps, different ways to paint on fused glass, etc. Below are some projects from the class. Enjoy! First project- full fused (flower) and tack fused I had seen some similar colors used with silver foil that created a cool reaction. We're not allowed to use silver because it contaminates the kiln, so I played with some dicrotic glass (the silvery blue) to create a similar look Jimm
