Monarchs in the Moonlight

Comes on a 16 inch sterling silver chain.  
Hands down, the best monarch encased bead that has come out of my studio.  
I will be sad to see him go.  Enjoy!

Metamorphosis No. 6

Before moving to Arizona, my fence was enveloped by climbing milkweed called Honeyvine. The hungry caterpillars would munch and munch and munch until an amazing metamorphosis occurred. I would check on them daily until the Monarchs emerged from their chrysalis and spread their delicate wings. A treasured memory that inspires me to this day.

Workshop Demo

It was a pleasure to teach a workshop this past weekend.  Special thanks to the incredible students, many of which traveled a great distance to attend. 

Butterfly Snaps

Butterfly Snaps featuring Jackie Gundelfinger's amazing murrini. The snaps will be available to purchase in the fundraising area @ the ISGB Gathering.  Stop by her facebook page to order her wonderful murrini to add a bit of flash to your next flamework project. 

Chrysalis No. 2

Found this beauty in my garden kiln.   It will be a long wait for this monarch to appear.  Enjoy!

Monarch Emerging

The glass chrysalis is slightly larger than 1:1 scale.  Very happy with how the focal turned out.  Definitely a conversation piece.  Enjoy!
