Here's a different approach to frit work. It should most likely be called frit casting. This glasswork must be a (French) kissing cousin to pate' de verre - LOL! (oops - did I just say that???)

I even tried to post a pic here, but couldn't even do that and really ------ I can usually read and follow instructions pretty well.

Still photo challenged here in MO

Gale, your work is stunningly beautiful!!!! All of the designs are gorgeous. I could easily see each around my neck and arms. The cast pieces are small and seemingly simple in design, but boy do they pack a punch. I love the sinuous copper wire and the organic look. Thanks for the peek. I look forward to seeing more.

Very nice. I nosed around the rest of your site as well.

Hmm...next weekend trip without the kids might have to include a jaunt from Augusta, Hermann, and up 79 through Clarksville.

I'll call it "The Missouri Wine/Glass Tour."

Hey...I think I may be on to something here.

Gale- I liked it very much, also- I'm interested in the larger work- I'm waiting until you post more pictures of larger pieces.

Thanks Ladies........casting work with molds and frit is an adventure. Keeps me rivited!

Leslie, I've added a couple of our larger pieces in the interiors heading and will be adding more over time. Like the artwork - the website is always in progress-LOL!

This is my production work website, not the heart - art and soul stuff.

Bev - would luv to have you come visit........ corner building facing the river. Howard x First St.

Bring good wine if you find some - I have glasses - yah!

Back to work!
