Here are two jellyfish buddies and one jelly is supporting the other. Both jellies are rich in bright colors. Fluid motion in glass very effectively tells this story of friendship.Once in awhile, even jellies need someone to lean on. Thank you for checking them out...

This is the first multi jellyfish,that I am satisfied with. It came out pretty good,the blue edge is metalic like, it just does not show it in the pics. This was a real learning experience. I had been working for the last two weeks on a multi jellies and just was not happy with the way they were comming out. Sometimes you need to step back and review the basics. That is what Cuatro did for me by leaving a comment last week and it helped alot. Thank you!! The input from other artisits is very valuable and much appreciated. Thank you for looking. JD

This one is the start to a new series of jellyfish. 15/8" To start the bell is a great new custom color it has a blue rim and then fades to a green/blue not a teal.The tentacles are blues, greens,a coral color and the green sparkle inside it does make up a new design

I would like to say THANKS to Dustin and everyone at Revere for this sweet black finished GTT lynx. I love it!! What a great torch this is. I have been using a nortel minor.Wow! When I set it up I knew right away, this is quality,and it was nothing like my other torch, much faster,hotter, cleaner flame and the detail I can do with this torch hands down it will bring my work to a new level!!! Peace JD.

This is what I have been working on this week,I am really enjoying playing with the hidden images in the bottom of the tenacles. I am still working on perfecting them,they turned out pretty good. but the camera does not seem to focus on the images very well. I guess this is one of those things best seen in person. Enjoy, Thank you for looking. JD

Nice Reticello marble. It really took longer than I expected, because of the injury to my finger. All in all, it turned out nice. Did not finish it because I ran out of gas, so the dots on the back were not twisted. Oh well, I still like this one. Thank you for looking. JDAnderson
