Hot glass. Torching. Molten. Flame. Boro.

Still exploring mediums. And I'm not there yet. I need to take another step to find my expression. I can sell items, but it's not my 'art' yet, if that makes sense! So my next obsession is Boro glass. I'm taking a couple of classes and already dreaming of glass. And combining it with wire and stone.

And jumping head first. I guess that's just the way I roll!

....and a pic of my first marble! Boro is 'hard' glass, you use temperatures up to 1500+ degrees to work it. But it has a depth and magic and unpredictability that I'm drawn to.

The new chicks on the block! I hatched them in June. 2 welsummers, 2 cochin, 1 frizzle, 2 Maran. Two or three ? will have to find new homes, since they're roosters.

AND quail! I hatched and have 20 right now. My girlfriend is going to 6 or so, and I'll keep the rest. For eggs, mostly
