Warrior

This  Indian was done one night as an experiment.  Black powder just dusted on the glass and the figure quickly sketched in sgrafitto style.  My plans were to put it back into the jar but i really liked his warrior look so i fired him.  Eventually, i added the red as a "blood and suffering" touch and then framed him!  Glass artists should try a quick sketch..sometimes it surprises you.

Whiite tiger wins!!

My white tiger, "Big Boy", won first place in glass fusing at the 2015 Texas State Fair.

New work...

I've been a busy girl and have recently completed two pieces.  The white tiger will probably be my entry for the Texas State Fair.  I haven't decided on a frame for the gray wolf but I'm beginning to like him as is on this custom frame by Joe Sitton of Ironheart Forge...check out his FB page.  While giving credits, I need to mention that the original photo of the wolf is the work of Paul Sherman, one of my fav wildlife photographers
