Boro Gallery August 2010

[garishglobes]

Yes, our very own Boro Gallery! I'm hoping it will get filled with lots of boro, from newbie to less new, to inspire, inform and encourage more work. Beads, stirrers, scultpure, vessels, experiments - all welcome.

To start us off in style, here's Ian Pearson's amazing vet - now get your own pictures up here too!

Some bits we did when you were up:





And some pendants:




And my Singing Ringing Trees!



And it's not even August yet!

"My dear, will you just look at those cobwebs!" 



...still work in progress (particularly the stoppers and the shape) - but they are fun to do!

About time I posted something here, been so tied up lately haven't had a chance to get any pictures taken! Been finally getting the hang of jellyfish too, but I really am getting to the limit of what I can do with a Minor, really going to have to start saving my pennies for something bigger now as this was quite tough to get shaped. I'm rather pleased how it came out though!
