Aloha!!!

  « My Marbles

(Nature Marbles)

Aloha!!! Here it is... Well one of them at least ;-) I've been working on these Palm Tree Marbles recently... Trying to figure things out... You know work out the kinks... I've almost got it though...

I wanted to create a marble that was somewhat representative of the beautiful place where I live... I figured a Palm Tree, a Wave and a Sunset pretty much says Hawaii!!!

I hope you like it!!!!

Aloha!!

MARBLE MADNESS NO KA OI!!!

I had to post it since Mr. Sable spilled the beans :-P

Another Day in Paradise...

Another Day in Paradise...

Here's one of my signature Palm Tree Marbles. I haven't been making a lot of marbles recently but I really enjoy the time I do get to make them. Here's one I'm pretty stoked on!! There's a little Bling Action on the back!!

More to see in Vegas!!!

Aloha!!

Made with Aloha!

Made with Aloha!

Here's a recent Paradise marble that I made!!! Stazrting to get the colors right and everything else... I hope you like it!!!

This marble has a solitary Palm Tree growing on a deserted island in the middle of the ocean!! There's a little cove that forms is own whirlpool in this one as well!! A pinwheel pattern of sunset colors decorates the back, while the bottom of this marble is covered with ocean blues, raked and pinwheeled churning up the water.. Measures 1 13/16 inch.

Thanx for looking!!!
Mahalo and Aloha!

Aloha everyone! My name is Ben Burton and I've been lampworking since January of 1999. I work borosilicate primarily but I will occasionally work moretti as well. I consider myself a sculptural artist, although I enjoy making focal pendants and have recently become infatuated with making marbles too. I live on the island of O'ahu, Hawaii and my work is constantly influenced by the beauty around me!! I hope you take the time to check out and enjoy my work!!! Please feel free to leave comments or messages. Live Aloha!

Mahalo and Aloha!!
