This is the piece I completed at the glass workshop last month and I'm just getting around to picking it up at the studio so here it is! This technique is very labor intensive but it is so rewarding when complete.   I will be traveling to Portland OR next week and am very excited about visiting the Bullseye Glass Factory.  Stay tuned for updates! To learn more about this workshop, check out this awesome post by Gloria Moses on her blog.

This piece comes framed Finished dimensions are 14x18

I painted this before I left for my workshop last week but didn't have time to post it, so here it is now.....If you've been following my Boot Camp series, you know my son in in Great Lakes IL becoming a sailor in finest Navy in the world :)  He has less than a week left and I will be traveling to Waukegan to see him graduate...I am soooo proud, there are no words.....


Also, something for me to look forward to when I get back is an art form I've wanted to try for a long time...I used to do a lot of glass fusing before I started painting, and have somehow wanted to try to meld the two together....Kelly Alge has mastered it and is going to give a workshop on the ins and outs of Sgraffito drawing in glass.....Please visit her BLOG , her work is incredible.... Here is what I will be learning
