Sculptural

An experiment, I didn't want "another mermaid" and left the face blank, unlike my usual style.

I made her back in 2005, a "pre-geisha" bead. She stands under 1 and 1/2 inches

This is a variation of my Sumo bead. I was playing around with some CZ's and decided to make a cowboy in chaps instead of my usual sumo wrestler

Well what else can I say, really.

A design from when I first began lampwork. Round body with a gold aventurine tail swirling around.

I felt like making a female sumo to match the guy in the speedo and one of my other guys turned out very tiny. Ta-da...instant family.

Next to a dime for size comparison. I've found the smaller the bead, the more difficult it is to do. It's a challenge, but I love seeing just how tiny and detailed I can go.

And yes- these too have the "Sumo Butt" ;)

My first Koala- special request from a friend.

My 2nd Koala, I like this design better than the first attempt.
