1. Owl Nouveau
This has to be one of my all time favorites. I love the patinae
effect and the jewel-like eyes, it reminds me of the art nouveau
period in it's colour sense. |
2. Blossom
My first blossom bead and the start of a new breed of owl.
The eyes are beautifully intense, love this little one.
|
3. Honey Blossom
A new technique for me that is extreme 3D. Each feather is 'imploded'
within clear glass, often used for flowers but all I saw were
owl feathers. |
4. Aurora
The eyes! the eyes!!. |
5. Ollie
Organic and curvy with lots of silver. He's puffed his feathers
out to guard against the cold. |
6. Benson
Shapely, beautiful golden eyes and interesting textures on his
feathers. |
7. Caesar
Unexpected delight with his ears reminding me of Caesar's laurel
leaf headgear. |
8. Boo n Hoo
What a great matched pair! I am so happy they turned out so
close to each other. |
9. Cooper
I really love the shading and colours. |
10. Angela - back view
To show the 'angel wings'. |
11. Dib, Dob, Dub
Sweet trio, rosy tummies - too cute. |
12. Pinky
The colours are comparable in intesity but also complementary,
so somehow it works (for me it does anyway!) |
13. Dovey
Sweet expression and I used shards for the first time. Shards
are thin pieces of glass that are laid over the bead shape and
can add interesting textures and colours. |
14. Dr Know
Has a wonderful air of mystery. |
15. Piccolo - keeper
He's perfect to me. Never let him go! |
16. Monk
Similar to Fortescue but deep interesting colours. |
17. Fortescue
A new kind of shape I find very cute. |
18. Perridew
Yummy colour and this shape really appealed to me. |
19. Helen
First time I used a beautiful new glass now called Terranova.
The glass was given to me by a friend and so I named the owl
after her. |
20. Violetta - keeper
Wonderful deep intense violets, indigos and blues with some
enhancing complementaries. Very happy - I don't know if I can
part with her. |
21. Humphrey
Such an exccentric fellow. A favorite glass used for his body
called Silver Cinnamon.
|
22. Judge
An experimental that was a happy success. |
23. Kookachoo
Who can resist this funny character? |
24. Laverne
So precise. Beautiful intense purples achieved using Terra glass
on her front spots. |
25. Magnus
Another created with shards. Subtle pretty colours. Harmonious. |
26. Moody Who
I just love the colours, Michaelangelo glass gives me something
new this time that gives me more to aspire to. |
27. Padme
She just looks perfect to me
|
28. Peachy Keen
Handmade colour for her body. Turned out purdy. |
29. Tiny Tim
He was so little and bright-eyed.
|
30. Rachel
She looks so elegant. |
31. Rustilda
Bright expression and made from an unusual glass. Love the shape
of her tail. |
32. Sapphira
First time I encased the body in clear and used a razor for
texturing. I love the colour. |
33. Siegfried
He comes from a water world. Even his pupils are floating.
|
34. Tom - keeper
One of my alltime favorites. I don't know if I will ever be
able to part with him. I love how the colours echo in the body
and eyes even though they are completely different glasses.
|
35. Gracie
Such a sweet inquisitive expression and beautiful eyes, great
colour. |
36. Sven
He appeals to me. Reminds me of an other-worldly creature, glowing. |
37. Tink
A tiny sweet little owl |
39. Tink's wings
A happy result! like flames |
40. Verity
Such big eyes and a pretty colour.
|
41. Walnut
Couldn't be better. |
42. Webster
Different technique overheating the black to made it web-out. |
43. Bing
Bing has bling. The body is a special silver based glass that
turns a multitude of colours. The eyes have a generous dose
of shimmering dichroic glass.
|
44. Chippy
Lots of character. |
45. Elodie
She has a delicate little ears and a butterfly on her back. |
46. Elodie's back
|

Great pattern on the chest. |
