Default Some boro from me

Hey everyone,
I have been posting in the newbie room for a while, but I thought I would put a few things here in the boro room. I mainly do boro. These are a few things I have been making over the past few months. I have had my torch for about 8 months. The dogwood is something I used to do in the early 80's. All of the color and beads, pendants, implosions, paperweights and marbles are entirely new to me. I just wanted to share and hopefully strike up a few friendships with my fellow boro buds. Any kind of feedback and input are greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking.

I think Brent is partial to hearts myself. I like your work its nice stuff. Keep going that's what I read from everyone, keep going and keep experimenting. Glass to me is the most amazing media for art.

Cheers!

Those are great, Dave! Thanks for the pics! Your dogwood may inspire me to sculpt some flowers of my own.

Trondo, thanks for the encouraging words. Brent's DVD was really helpful with combining colors and shaping the heart. I see why he would be partial to them.
Dave, thanks. That's one of my most commented on pieces.
AuntD, thank you. I love making bid sculptures like that, but my glass supply is limited right now. I hope to be able to make more like that in the future.
