I have been creating lampwork beads for about 6 years. My goal is to provide beautiful artistic beads to the jewelry making community. In pursuit of this goal I have taken a number of classes to increase my skill level throughout the years. Here is a listing of the classes I have taken so far:
Cindy Brown (Beginning and Intermediate Lampworking) September and October 2002 Pati Walton (Floral Landscapes and Aquarium Beads) Spring 2003 Jim Smircich September 2003 Pati Walton (Murrini) Spring 2004 Andrea Guarino Summer 2004 Corina Tettinger Fall 2004 Leah Fairbanks April 2005 Deborah Carlson April 2006 Loren Stump October 2006 September 2007 Kate Fowle Melaney October 2007 Michael Barley October 2007 Sharon Peters November 2008 Kim Fields Melanie Moertel August 2009
My beads are made with Italian (Effetre/Moretti/Vetrofond/Murano), American (Bullseye/Uroboros/Spectrum), German(Lauscha/Reichenbach/Zimmerman/Kugler), Czech, and Australian (Gaffer) glass. All beads are kiln annealed at the correct annealing schedule for each particular type of glass.
