Some recent work for a current exhibition. The first two are (obviously ) mail collabs with Marcel, I tried to match bottles and stoppers with his magnificent Spirit Bears. The bear with the black bottle sold opening night to a hot-air balloonista, who is about 86 years old, and absolutely stoked about it!
The orchids are a collab with my partner Laurie, she made the orchids and cast the base and I added the mantis.

Dave ... awesome work. I particularly love the yellow angelfish.

Wicked ... I always love looking at your work. I would love to be a mouse on your shoulder watching you create. Just spectacular as always!!

I'm just in awe of the great work you all do! Speechless. (I keep looking for the darned "Like" button but since there isn't one, please know that you guys blow my socks off!)

I never post here, but I just have to chime in. That is some fantastic work Wicked! I really like the stoppered pieces. The eye one is wonderful. I especially like the mantis stopper. Excellent balance on that one. I love the flow of the curves and the colors on it too.

Thank you! I have to say that I seem to work well under pressure, I tend to be grumpy for the duration, but my concentration levels increase exponentially (don't interrupt me! lol). These pieces, amongst many others, were made in the last week and a half leading up to the exhibition.
The bear bottle was sold to a little old lady (around 94, if memory serves) who collects glass (one of the most important glass collections in Australia) and is into hot air ballooning. She's traveled the world and has also been to the States 18 times to do just that. Her dream is to go hot air ballooning in Cappadocia, Turkey, as soon as her doctor gives her the okay. Congratulations on the sale, Marcel

Thanks everyone! Once my new website is done, I will put a few up for sale. I have to admit, they don't always turn out this well.
