Crazy Glass (After)
Continued from prior post.
This is the glass post-firing. The amber with light blue streaks turned blood red! It is embellished with glass line paints in gold and copper.
Crazy Glass (Before)
My friend and mentor, Gerry Klein recently moved to Colorado Springs, CO. On her departure she gave me a box of glass made locally in Omaha. When I fire this stuff it comes out completely different than planned. This is a hoot!!
Here is the before shot
Rainbow Disk
This 10 inch circular disk is decorated with a rainbow of colors. It creates a wonderful color pattern on my walls when the window are open and the sun is shining bright.
The Garden Gallery Artist Co-op
Exciting News! I just joined The Garden Gallery Artists Co-op in Elkhorn, NE. Many of the pieces you see on my web-site are now available at The Garden Gallery.

I enjoyed a successful showing during my first art fair (at The Garden Gallery); so it is time time make the leap and have art pieces shown daily in the gallery. If you have never been there: stop by. Michele has set up a great shop with a welcoming atmosphere and literally a HOUSE FULL OF ART! The address is 2721 North 206th Street Elkhorn, NE.
The dish shown is a new design for Christmas. The festive red and green stripes are highlighted by white stringer spacers and is slumped into a 5″ X 10″ rectangular shape.
Autumn leaves
Another addition to the collection. This Autumn Oak leaf dish. (5″ x 10″) is patterned from the real thing. The leaf is “painted” with mixtures of fall colored Frits.
Fall is here!
The leaves are changing and so are some of my designs. This 5″ x 10″ rectangle Ivory glass dish is embellished with orange streamers while the center is decorated with a three leaf screen print fired into the glass to last. Bring it on Mother Nature….I’m ready for all the beautiful fall colors.
