Default August Show and Tell

Well it's my birthday today, and no one has gotten things started yet, so why not...... I made a pendant and a marble b4 treating myself and my kids to a Wolrd Of Outlaws Late Model show tonight. I have trouble taking pics of these cause there's so many colors, but i try my best. I however had no problem snapping the cars in action. Racked up 375 good shots. lol

Great pendants, and those vessels are lovely. So are the cored beads.
These ladies are work in progress, the stoppers need work but I'm happy with them so far..


..and a dragon:

I've got a month long exhibition coming up starting next week, and I've been scrambling to get stuff ready to take to it. Here's some of the ones I've made in the past couple days...

Sweet work, everyone, I have a feeling with these kinds of shenanigans going on it's going to be yet another great month! I love seeing what everyone's up to!

Here's a couple of my new playthings ... yes, fakies ... one Skeltech Plesiosaurus (4.5cm)


and a Kimon Blue Oni (5cm)

Wow, Wow, WOW!!! Wonderful work so far everyone!

Wicked...your Skeltech Plesiosaurus is amazing! And is it just me, or when you stare at the face shot of the Oni, doesn't it seem to be slowly moving toward you? Neat and weird all at the same time...

I'm just waiting for that Octopus Pendant you have on your site to come 'round for sale!

gah, I'm sorry, that one went to Morio in Japan a few weeks ago ... but I'm going to be making more, so don't despair. Thanks for your comments on the marbles, too.
I'm going out of town for a few days to an exhibition opening, so here's another skeltek before I go, which came out of the kiln today, another 2" one. Unfortunately atm I can't go much bigger because I only have a 1" marble mold I need an upgrade!

Here are some I just finished for someone. Last one was finished this morning and they get shipped tomorrow morning. I had a great time working with the lady and the freedom she gave me for decorations. Was a complete pleasure.

Sorry for the big pics, didn't feel like making them smaller. Been a long day. Ok, I am just being lazy. See by the time I finished typing all this extra stuff I could have re-sized and uploaded them. Sheesh..
