Just finished


Another wall hanging just finished.

This is 56cm square and includes some lovely big scallop shells I found washed up on the beach after a big storm.  The colours weren't very nice so I used some metallic paint to brighten them up.
The glass is irridescent sky blue and the swirls in the middle representing waves started out as wooden coasters!

New Mirror

It's been going well in the Gallery,  I've sold more than I expected and have lots of ideas for more to make.  I've also enjoyed working in the shop and meeting the customers.

Here is a mirror I've just finished which I'll put on display next.  It is made with black and red iridescent glass which is lovely but hard to do justice to in a photo.  It looks a bit wonky  here but that's only because I've photographed it at a slight angle to avoid my reflection and then cropped it - I wasn't drunk when making it!
