the original version of blue dream. made the piece three weeks ago. electroformed copper on the slide(14mm) 2 weeks ago, but didnt have enough solution to plate the bubb. ordered up more and finished the bubbler. used onyx, butterscotch, and mixed peacock/ aqua azul/ boro white together for the blue. added a dream catcher with turquoise beads, and a piece of quarts. movable marble on back, and used moldavite left in its raw form. layered copper effect on bottom of can! stands about 13 inches tall. really enjoyed messing with the electroforming process;thanks for checking it out...

The peace pipe serves as a portable altar. Used in every ceremony and used to communicate with the creator. It is sacred to the people and should be considered as holy as the church....

So its been a little while since I posted; I've been preparing for AGE this spring, but I thought I'd log in and check
out the new changes to the site. This is a piece I plan on taking to the show. Looking forward to meeting a lot of you
and catching up with some friends!
This hand spun tube stands 14 inches tall. sand blasted with an elk skull at the top and electroformed with fluorite
crystals. According to believes, the stone opens pathways in the brain to the higher dimensions of light. It increases
alertness and mental activity and also helps in grasping complex and abstract concepts. The power of fluorite brings
in objectivity and concise, orderly thoughts, actions and behavior. It encourages truth, understanding and wisdom.

Hey thanks for checking out my work. I've been blowing glass since late 2002 early 2003. Mainly in Richmond, VA. Though I'm part of small father and son business in Charlottesville, VA called Roots Rock Reggae. Some of my work plus other local artist's work can be found there.
