I’ll be teaching my final classes for the year at Delphi's Lansing Creativity Center in a couple of weeks and there are still a few seats available. Friday, October 13 is a one day class: “Folk Art and Graphic Floral Beads”. Saturday, October 14 – Sunday, October 15, is “Farm & Fungus” beads and sculptures. Demonstrations will include pumpkins, gourds, mushrooms and other surprises! Perfect for Fall! (Links for the classes are in the Comments section.)
Still in the mood for fall and Halloween. Just added some new pieces to my Etsy shop. Death's-head moth beads, more glass gem corn and vulture and pumpkin sculptures! Thanks for looking.
Hot shots from the studio Wednesday night. Looks like the “Spirit of 2020”... but really it’s the prototype for “Scrooge”. Next one will have a top hat, scarf, and maybe some glasses?
