After studying at the Scuola Bubacco with Lucio this past February I made a promise to myself and to Lucio that I would not pick up a mandrel to make a bead until I have made 100 men sculptures at which time I will send Lucio a photo of my 100th man. I have since named this self imposed assignment " the 100 mans project " because I still can hear my cousin one night as she waved out the window saying , "Oh worker mans! worker mans hello ~~ woo ~~ oh worker mans." we were driving past yes you guessed it, the worker mans as they worked at night under those bright lights that the worker mans use when working on roads at night.

I'm now making little men (smaller than my revious mans) . These men are holding up a bead. My focus as I enter the last 25 men of this project is to have them be very sturdy. Unfortunatly my camera (brand new) is not focusing well today.

The first of the bead mans. off to test my ability to make him sturdy. He will go in the mail to one of the most generous " bead ladies" I know.

Hey ya'll this is Amoret Phillips also known as Amozoo my shop ~ RGP ~(really great place) is located in Raleigh, NC. My website domaine name is Fire Kissed Glass and my web blog is www.moltendiva.com I've been a bead maker for about 4 years and just moved into the world of sculpture. My focus is soft glass worked with a torch. I especially like the color palate of moretti and am finding it a nice challenge to learn the properties of soft glass and to learn how to create objects that don't explode! thanks for stopping by.

Just what I intended!
"Sullenly ill-humored; gruff. Threatening, as of weather conditions; ominous: surly clouds filled the sky. Obsolete. Arrogant; domineering."
Sara Sally That's me~ I've got as many moods as there are men in my project! and that's my good side!
Thanks for stopping by my friend; as Mr. Smilie says, "I had something funny to say, but I forgot"
