It's hard not to blow glass when your constantly surrounded by such inspiring colors. I never really struggle with color combinations, I just look around me and mimic what I see here in the High Desert. As I prepare for Tuscon Best Bead Show 2006 I took a drive up through the Sandia Mountains. Here's a sampling of the natural palette I select my colors from.

Here's the same view taken a few moments earlier.

Everything from rich greens to vivid blues and lavenders

In the mountains the sunset is more pinks and grays than in the city. I like the tarnsistions from almost salmon pink to smoky gray.

Here's Albuquerque shot from a mile up, on top of the Sandia crest. Its definitely the most peaceful way to see the city.

This is from the highest point accesible in the Sandia mountains lookiing out west over the city if Albuquerque, NM

Hand crafted Lampwork reflecting the beauty of the High Desert Southwest. I began Lampworking in spring of 2000. The work presented here is a testament to all the hard work, patience, and skill it takes to keep glass hot, well formed, and beautiful. There's no where on earth quite as eye catching as the desert here in New Mexico, hopefully my work captures that. Without the patience and support of God and my colleauges I never could have made it this far. Thank you to: Lewis Wilson and the whole Crytal Myths fam, KBGlassworks for all the things I cant mention here, and the glass support, The Wisconsin Squad, Paul and Devin; the Queen City Lampworks team for trading me for my first beads without clowning me, Harold Williams Cooney aka"Happy" your work ethic is amazing, Kevin O'Grady for showing me how to sell all this stuff I keep making, and of course my son Noah...Its all for you man. Feel free to contact me either by Phone or Email for all purchase information. Thank you for spending some time with me...
