I've been working with a new type of glass. Hand painting on it is a bit more challenging, at least thus far. Every change seems to bring a new hurdle to get past.

I finished this kitty and realized it looks so much like my first cat. His name was Thomasina. Yes a male cat named Thomasina. I named him after a Disney movie when I was four years old. The 1964 movie was titled, The Three Lives of Thomasina. Ever hear of that oldie?

Sweet Pea wearing Cup Cozy

Kristy, owner of Etsy shop, Creature Comforts LLC., made us this beautiful cup cozy. It also functions as a little neck warmer for our girl. The pink in the yarn is one Sweet Pea's 'signature' colors, plus the little flower/bone on the side matches her crocheted jacket perfectly.
Thank you Kristy!

Wishing everyone a Happy St. Patrick's Day.

Meet Brain and Haley

a r t 4 m i l k b o n e s - a girl & her dogs: So my sister adopted some .... GOATS! This blog post reminded me of Brian and Haley:
This is Brian with my cousin. Brain was rescued from a dog fighting ring. These little beings are being used to bait and train dogs to fight.

This is Haley. She lives like one of the dogs inside a home. She is owned by my cousin's boss. My cousin works for the local humane society, so I would guess Haley was also a rescued goat.

The Glass Lovers Art Society

The Glass Lovers Art Society is a terrific group of artists who paint on glass. I was invited to join the group a little more than a year ago. For that, I am so very grateful. I have learned so much about working with glass from the many talented and experienced members. They are generous artists willing to share their knowledge and experience. I have lots of fun joking around with the artsy TGLAS gals, plus enjoy creating glass paintings to enter in our themed challenges.
(Search TGLAS on Ebay to find their creations.)

Meet the Penguins

My nephew was one of 85 to go on a cruise to Antarctica.
Forrest Mars (think Mars bars, M & Ms, Skittles), an alumni of my nephew's preparatory school, sponsered this opportunity of a lifetime.

Dachshund Necklace

I love the way this necklace came together. I was fortunate to have found a piece of dichroic glass that went to well with the beads. Finding another piece of glass liek this one will be very difficult. Truly, this a one of a kind.
