The Colors came out wonderful on this one! I am very pleased!
Thanks for looking at my work ya'll.. 
I Love this new glass I'm working with.
Here he is.
Majestic Corral Emperor Sea Horse
 
He's going up on Etsy tomorrow. The other one sold this morning.
And this is my first one I made day before yesterday. He's on his way to Australia as of this morning.

Thanks everyone.
Nancy, They are new to me but they are actually old colors that are no longer available. They were gifted to me for christmas. They weren't labeled and she doesn't know what they are. *sniff sniff* But omg the colors are just wonderful.
Now, I am also using dbl amber purple and exotic citrus grapefruit together. Those are my primary colors in the last Sea Horse ( Emperor ), if that's any indication of what you can get. I actually just figured that out on this sea horse. lol
ETA, Oh, and (09 yellow) North star

I am just... breathless. this is truly amazing. i would venture to say one of, if not the best lampworking i've ever seen. and we all know how much goes in the galleries. lol
anyway, this is awsome. i say you should start a thread in the gallery of your seahorses and add every new one you make. haha. i love them.

Ahh, The one that looks kinda clear metal-ish...
I was experimenting with water and glass. That is an aquarium full of water. I put different background colored transparencies behind the aquarium and swished the water around just before I would fire a shot. In the darker one I just stopped down the camera. For me it's always a struggle to do product photography so I'm always trying different things.lol Thanks!

Thank you EVERYONE for sharing your thoughts on my work!
Good, Bad or indifferent. It's all very constructive for me and helps me move forward!
I just realized another adventure to add to my creatures that would seem in my visual mind to really enhance this direction even further. Now if I can can make it happen at the torch.
A few days ago, my muse seemed to WAKE UP all of the sudden and now I can't stop thinking of the possibilities, " and just when we're getting close to traveling up North for 9 days! lol - My note pad will be full by the time we get home. I hope my muse remains in tact! hahaha
Thanks so much everyone! You ALL inspire me to an endless degree.............
