Monday Murrini's





We are currently holding "Monday Murrini" days at my Studio.....making & practicing some of Loren Stumps fabulous teaching. We are going through our notes and coming up with things we would like to make out of murrini....so that we will end up with a whole lot of little Murrini that we can use in our work.

I must say that it takes a while to make a piece and if it is large you need someone else there to help you pull....but WOW how satisfying at the end!!!

I'm loving working with others at the Studio....and even collaborating on some work at the moment....totally AWESOME!!!!

If anyone would like to create or join a "day session" at my Studio...just let me know!!!

Back from an Amazing Workshop





Wow I have now recovered from the most amazing glass workshop I have ever taken. American Glass Artist & Teacher Loren Stump was in Melbourne for 2 weeks teaching his Loren1 class....and I was there!!! Learning all things glass including Murrini, sculptural and flowers etc for a paperweight. Loren is an amazing and very giving teacher and is worth his weight in gold!!! What a time....my head is buzzing & the ideas are REALLY flowing!!!
