I just finished back-to-back courses from Loren Stump. If his name doesn't ring any bells, visit StumpChuck. He teaches murrini, sculpture and encasing in glass. My mind is full of idea and through some of the demos, new pendant designs began to grow in my head. So, once I settle down in front of my torch, beware world!
Another thing of interest is when I was demoing for the Bay Area Glass Institute's annual Farmer's Market. I started to make little glass mushrooms. They happen to be quite cute. I also see more small sculpture (beyond mushrooms) in my near future, too.
My mind is ablaze with ideas. The only thing standing in my way is the execution.
