Lampworking allows your to create the beads for one-of-a-kind pieces.
The dark green pendant is created from a piece of recycled Merlot wine bottle glass and adorned with Italian Glass lampwork beads and 2 African Trade Beads called Wedding Beads. That is a story within a story and I will write about them one day.
The blue piece is created from one of Cindy Myers glass hand blown bowls. It broke and of course it made its way to the torch. This piece is a brooch adorned with various beads from around the world.
These two pieces are in my case at Arts Prescott Cooperative Gallery.
Drop by on Friday for Prescott's 4th Friday Art Walk. Michael Myers will have his Guest Artist Show Reception at the gallery.
