Bead Design Studio loved my owl so much, they had to put him in the magazine! My etsy store contains all the special findings needed to make this piece!
My year got derailed..
Saturday, February 16, 2013, 10:39am
Mid-summer I bought a new house, this of course derailed my bead making as everything had to be packed up and moved. Once we moved to the new house a studio had to be built. For my late year shows
I was torching in the atrium of the new house.
However, a new studio was built with the assistance of my Mum and Dad (they're the best, they spent all seven weeks of their vacation here working on it).
Obviously with such a gorgeous workspace, how could I be anything other than creative? Here's a few of the new pieces I've been making with more to follow later after I've taken pictures.
Upcoming shows
I have a few upcoming shows, Concord, CA and Beadfest Santa Fe. Please check the sidebar for more shows and details on those two.

Website updates and Bead Society of Los Angeles Bazaar
Monday, April 19, 2010, 12:20 PM
The web redesign I've been intending to do for months is finally done. Hopefully you will enjoy the new layout I've intended for it to be more informative, with places to share new work, upcoming shows and updates.
I've sacrificed a large amount of torch time in the last week to getting some of my internet chores out of the way. I tackled the task of finally re-learning how to make websites. It's been a while and the process has changed a lot.
In addition to the website updates I've also created a facebook fan page for Tangible Light Studios. This will be the place you can get immediate updates on new listings and experimental work. You can become a fan here. My facebook page is linked into Etsy, but you can still access all my work for sale through the gallery page here on the website as well.
This Sunday (the 25th of April) I'll be at the LA Bead Society Show in Culver City. It's from 10am-4pm at Veteran's Memorial Auditorium, 4117 Overland Ave at Culver Blvd., Culver City. I hope you will come down and check it out!!
