aBc's sculpting whimisical beads! ta da!
 

Just finished and listed, the aBc's of lampwork sculpted beads.
A great 101 of sculpting glass, simple tools, techniques can be used for oodles of other critters,
31 pages of over 115 pictures, and step by step instructions on how to sculpt
Birds, bees, bunnies, bugs, butterflies, blossoms, (ducks)
7 tutorials in one!

I decided to do this series after teaching bead making 101 at the glass society, and finding so much interest in doing the sculptural beads.
(wait till you see the 102 tut! whales, clownfish, blowfish, lobsters, penguins etc! )

I do believe you are having fun!! with these tutorials. It turns out that I LOVE sculpting glass -- this seems to be my favorite way to work with glass.

Now that I'm taking better photographs thanks to the photo tut -- I'm posting my recent work. Thanks for sharing these hints and tips etc.

Ty Barbara,
