Hey everyone!
great rings val - i love making those! they can be a bit tricky though, that's for sure
fantastic fume work - and i love the little dragon!! I'm hoping to get a chance to take some pics of the cool stuff I did at GS this past weekend.
Oh also - in case you might have missed it - Josh Mazet is teaching a 2 day marble class at CBS in Anaheim/Orange. I thought I'd plug him here since he doesn't know his way around here at LE yet. http://www.lampworketc.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=102970

Beautiful work from everyone. Val those rings are to die for, and Glassroger, I'm loving your dragon. Maybe I'll get there one of these days. You all are a really hard act to follow but here are my humble offerings.
Some creatures inspired by Pipyr's Boro on a Concentrator tut - this is a double posting, I already posted them in the gallery thread for her tut, but I think these guys are pretty cute
Some pendants - These are my best ones to date

Love everybody's stuff. I haven't posted in a while because boro was giving me a hard time, but I think I've found my mojo again.
I'm really pleased with how these turned out. I love the rich, deep colors. They remind me of the fall.

Heres the stuff I've made since the beginning of the month.
Pendants, few beads and marbles
This dichro pendant in the middle cracked for some reason when annealing. There was no stress and was in for a 6 hour cool down.
wrap and rake ornament
Miniature wine glass & jar

Everything here looks awesome!! I haven't had a chance to light my torch in a while and yesterday I finally got around to making a few pendants. These are my first attempts at silver fuming and hopefully the pictures show up... Yeah, they showed up alright. Sorry for the size...

hiyas
it's 2am again and I just got home from making more glass. There's an exhibition coming up on Thursday called Flame On Glass so I've been working like a demon for pieces to put in. I keep coming up with ideas, but time's running short now. Here's a couple of pics of a piece which will be in the exhibition. The pics were taken with two different drivers hooked to the piece
cheers
Chris
