During the lazy days of summer, sometimes it’s good to just take a break from that hot torch, and sit back with a nice cold glass of tea and read what’s going on in the lampworking world!
- The copying discussion continues — Mincot continues her ponderings while mixed-media artist (and sister of my lampworker friend Ellen) Nina Bagley shares her frustrations with the imitation of her own work. Incidentally, if you don’t read Nina’s blog, Ornamental, you should subscribe — I am always inspired by Nina’s words and pictures!
- Laura Sparling has been trying to make “cloud beads” for some time. Watch as she persists, and succeeds!
- That Karolen! She’s at it again, working her magic with the Triton!
- Sarah Hornik’s back from her Australia trip, sharing her memories of birds and beads from Down Under.
Stay cool and hydrated, y’all!
