ABOUT ME & MY STUDIO
My name is Bonnie and I've been doing glass art/crafts since
about 1990. I took my first lampworking class at the Eugene
Glass School and as soon as I lit my torch and that huge ball of
flaming gas shot across the work table, I was hooked...by the way,
if a huge ball of flaming gas shoots out of your torch, you're
doing something WRONG!

I'm a member of the International Society of Glass Beadmakers
and I am a registered Self-Representing Glass Artist.

All of my beads and fused items are made with Bullseye glass
which is made right here in Oregon. The glass is more expensive
than the imported glasses, but I find it works wonderfully for
sculptural items and it allows me to put flameworked elements
into my fused art.

All of my beads are made using a GTT Lynx surface mix
(oxygen/propane) torch. I have an On-Site Pro4 oxygen generator
that supplies all the oxygen I need and two digitally controlled
AIM bead kilns for proper annealing of all lampworked art.

Fused pieces are made using a Denver Glass digitally controlled
kiln.

I love making handmade lampwork beads and beautiful fused pieces,
but I'm a "hobbyist" so high production isn't my thing. This isn't
how I make my living, it's how I make myself happy and it's how I
relax. I'll try to put up new pieces every week, but if the
weather gets good and I've got repairs around the house to do or
my Corgi wants to walk on the beach...well, I've also gotta keep
the place up and make the puppy happy. Thank you so much for
visiting my website.

This is my lampworking station. It was
only this neat and clean once so it's a
good thing I took a photo
then so I could share it with you now.

I had envisioned that my light table
would be used for laying out fusing
projects (like I used to do when I did
stained glass), but for the longest time
it's been covered with headpins,
silver wire, beads, etc.
