Jellyfish and Some Friends

Perhaps two years ago, I set a Patron tequila bottle upright on a kiln shelf curious to see the end result (normally bottles are laid on their side in a kiln).  Almost immediately upon retrieval, that Patron bottle looked to me to be a future jellyfish.

Though it would need to wait on a basement table for quite some time, that jellyfish has finally come to life on a large old window of 31x30 inches.

My Map of the World Hangs in the Roseville High School Library

This morning I received a picture of my Map of the World mosaic on an old storm window, as it now hangs in its new home.  It took me well over a month to finish this piece last summer, and it was purchased by Roseville High School soon after the LOLA art crawl.  The picture below is of the piece as it now hangs in their library.

It's a real honor to think of the future generations of high school students that will view my creation.  Thank you Roseville High School.
