Deep blues make it so easy...


This color is so beautiful. I love working with it because it makes it so easy to create a beautiful piece. The color just does all the work for the eyes.  I wanted to create a minor level of depth within the bead so I added clear glass stripes in the flame and then allowed gravity to pull on them while molten. It creates a swirl and a slight hint of dimension within.  The rich browns and antiqued copper findings feel so right with this color as well.  So what is better than keeping this piece for myself...is having made it for someone special and I looking forward to giving it to then tomorrow.
