I love the blown lentil - gorgeous colors. And Kim V - the pastel green implosion flower is really lovely - again loving those colors.

Here is a "Becoming Bicone". I used spring luster and blue amber purple - both colors that I have really not liked in the past because for me they ususally just sit there and do nothing. But this time - they woke up and I'm likin' them... And a "Bluefishing" lentil.

Lots of awesome stuff in here. I love the creativity. Never thought of barometers but I guess we can do them after all! What a great idea! That plasma jelly is... wicked. Really neat! Kim, I think that heart loop is really cool too...

Almost there Stephen, hard to know when to call it done, paint has a way of taunting you to keep spreading it around.

Hey Ro, you like that one do ya? One of my favorite finds...
Most folks know the old NS transparent yellow over ruby red (I like elvis ruby)trick, this is what you can get by layering transparent NS yellow over NS opaque Cherry. The bumps are amber-purple over white.

Hi guys! It’s June and show and tell time! I have been working full-time at my “Day Job” and have not had alot of time to work on the torch this month, but I did see some stuff in the last issue of The Flow that inspired me to make this cherry blossom bansi with owl. I hand mixed all the colors, if you look close you can see silver popping out in the jar, its 6in tall.

The green is actually Chinese black 32mm rod. The photo makes it look green for some reason even though its gloss black.

That's the reflection of the background, which is lighter than the piece. Why it's specifically green and not gray I can't tell you...

Often, I have wondered...how are those stripey petals and circles made, like the one's in Beau's or Stephen's pendants? I wish either of you were doing a class at Arrowsprings, so I could take it. Is there a dvd that show's how to do this?
Beau...I am intrigued by your pendant with the heart in the center. I love those colors.
