sea slugs, glass, gouache and art

So I spent a month back home in BC visiting family and friends and I did a little plein air painting while I was there. It’s been forever since I painted in a touristy area and I forgot how just impressed the average person is with seeing art being made in person. 

To quote my biggest fan that day, “WHOOOOA IT LOOKS JUST LIKE IT!!”

You ever think of making earrings? I have a serious weakness

the thing about earrings is you have to make two of them...

I haven't figured out how to make glass earrings in a way I like yet, but polymer clay stuff can easily be put on earring hooks if you want!

I love your work so so so much! How did you get into glassblowing? Did you need any certificates or courses? Where do you make the stuff you sell?? Your work is so incredible 🌻🧡

Hi thank you! glass is something I can't do at home so I was working in a little glass studio that rented out space. if you're interested a lot of cities have either glass beadmaking/sculpture classes in soft glass or pipe/sculpture classes in hard glass.

I took a single afternoon glass beadmaking class when I was in highschool ages ago but when I started to do sculptural lampworking last year I just winged it and taught myself as I went along.

seems that a lot of hot ladies with blank blogs simply can NOT get enough of my sea slugs.

honestly, who could blame them.
