Stripes

This is a fun piece I made recently. It's 10" square and about 1.5" deep.

I had an assortment of glass strips out on my work table from other pieces and decided to put them together.

I like the way it came out.

Small Pink Bowls

These pieces are all 6" square. What can you do with a six in bowl? You can use it as:

• a candle holder
• a candy dish
• a jewelry/trinket holder
• a little piece of art
• a cat dish

Color

These pieces were all made with many squares of different colored glass.

The candle bridge measures 5" x 8".

The little plate on the left is about 4" square.

The bowl on the right is 6.5" square (approximately).

Black & White

For these pieces I stuck with black and white with some various shades of grey.

Clock for Jenna's Parents

Recently my hair stylist (Jenna) asked me to make a clock for her parents' new office (in Portland).

She gave me the colors that they used, and while I was in Seattle I got some samples - because it wasn't like Behr or Glidden; it was Devine Color.

So for a while, I was looking at the colors and trying to come up with a design. Looking at the colors, thinking how much I liked the color combination. Looking... Thinking...

It wasn't until I finished the clock and went to take the picture that I realized part of the reason I liked the color combination so much is that it's basically the same combination in my living & dining rooms!

What clever people Jenna's parents must be. I hope they like their clock.

The Other Three...

While I was making the pieces for the Alaska Run for Women, I made a few extra. (I'm a bit of a freak.) I wanted to make sure that I had the pieces I needed and wasn't scrambling to make something at the last minute if something went wrong.

So these are the three I thinned from the herd. There's nothing wrong with them... I just liked the others more.

Alaska Run for Women

These are the pieces I made for the 2009 Alaska Run for Women:
Since it is an event for Breast Cancer Awareness, each piece has pink in it. Although, I didn't want everything to be bubblegum pink, so there's light pink, dark pink, cranberry pink, and fuschia.

Actually, the pinks are the only colors in the pieces. Except for the two round bowls, which are all pink, each piece has black & white, and most have some grey.

A Tale of Two Clocks

These two clocks each have a black base and are topped with squares of red & orange and red & green that seem to tumble down. Trying to get this random sort of look is always a challenge. I'm very nitpicky about having it look natural, while at the same time fighting the urge to make it symmetrical. The leaning clock is 4" wide x 7" tall. The curved clock is 4" tall x 4" wide.
