Wow Lisa--what a great new direction! I wish I could see if from straight on too. How in the heck did you make that keyhole cut! That must have been nerve wracking no matter how you did it! I can't wait to see more!!!!!!!!!! Exciting!

...but if Clapton had sung it so much like Cale--same instrument, same harmonies even tried to imitate his voice I'm guessing it might have irritated Mr. Cale--especially if it had hurt his career instead of putting money in his pocket. Taking the song and making it his own is one thing, but having ...

Does that mean someone can lie naked in a big kiln with sinks in front of them and an audience for next year's calendar?? :biggrin:

Just showed the calendar to my husband. He was really interested in all the coldworking equipment until we got to October... :wink:

Oh poor Amy--in far off remote Milwaukee!! I can't believe I got mine before you. Does your mailman have sticky fingers and love glass by any chance?

I agree J & A. When people have asked me for info. I always give it freely but there is a bit of a lurch in my stomach wondering if I will see something that looks like my work start appearing somewhere (except of course my work is relatively schizophrenic). Recently when I showed my floating bo...

Its beautiful--so perfectly done. A lot of Pate de Verre looks rough or unfinished to me--but your work never does.

Okay, you're right, I'll ask--how did you get the pounded metal texture...or is it a trade secret. :-#

Yeah the coldworking is very cool--looks like Jackie inspired you on the bark texture. The texture that looks like pounded metal is esp. interesting--changes the piece completely. I am curious about how its done but I won't ask!

My third time looking at these today...its a rare thing to get such a body of work to digest at once. It may be my religious upbringing/seeing a lot of abstract stained glass or just my personal interpretation, but they feel very spiritual to me. Is that part of what you are saying or is it just me?...

Nobody, but nobody would be brushing their teeth or washing their hands in that sink if it was mine. I'd have a little sign next to it reading "Please wash your hands in the tub".

I would vote for Portland too for all of the above reasons--plus the bonus of getting to see new products in person (a great luxury for those of us living in the boondocks who have to order everything without seeing it first), see the new Bullseye Connection, watch demos etc. Could combine it will p...

Fantastic work, all of it, but the pieces that are complete mosaics are so astoundingly beautiful.

When did the prepaid non US ones go out? Canada in the first batch, other countries in the second. They were all sent Air Mail. I can testify from experience with sending out my book that the Canadian post office is horrible, and the British Columbia mail service is the worst of all. Perhaps less p...

If mine got lost somehow, which would not surprise me, are there any left to cover mail losses? No, we haven't held any back (still have a waiting list), but I'm pretty confident yours will reach you. It was mailed last week, so should be there soon. Were they sent out in alphabetical order by any ...
