Where did October go? Can't believe it's almost November... we have lived in the Okanagan for 10 years now..that's amazing too.

I have been busy teaching and making pieces for the up-coming ...EVENT..

'Homes for the Holidays' Nov. 13, 14 & 15..

I will be at the Martin Lofts.. 700 Martin Avenue on Friday Eve. 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm.

This is by admission to ticket holders only..(http://www.selectyourtickets.com/)

On Saturday (Nov. 14) I will be at the Rotary Centre for the Arts...Studio 203 (no tickets needed here)

There is also a big artisan Sale at RCA all that weekend..Our studio will of course be open...

The Evergreen Art Gallery will be up for viewing also...

Not sure where I will be on Sunday..

These are the pics. of pieces that I fused in micro-wave kiln about 20 years ago...

Now it is official..I have my web-site up and running

although I have to finish it off and add some stuff ...that will be a challenge for me
My daughter Stacy helped me..she is the techno whiz around here..
There is not enough time to do everything...

My kiln stopped working...looks like I need a new Controller..The solution to fix it is not easy (parts have to come from Toronto) or cheap.. but I figure I will up-grade to a digital control..

I have ordered a new mini-kiln that uses the micro-wave to fuse glass..only can do one large cabochon at a time..but it will be a good teaching tool as I will be able to use it at Studio 203.

I used one of these about 20 years ago and then they disappeared off the market... I still have the pieces that I fused.. will post some pics. of them....Fusing is really "HOT" right now...no pun intended..
