For those of you who are familiar with my work, you know I tend to prefer bright colors - blues, greens, purples or neutrals like black and white, with some red. Over the past few years, I've been accumulating a fair amount of light amber glass (left over from making my Christmas angel ornaments). As I hate to waste glass, I decided to expand my color palate so I could incorporate some of the amber glass. So, in addition to amber, I've added olive green, persimmon, terra cotta, and a range of amber colors. Here's the first fused glass pieces out of the kiln.
However, as I still had a fair amount of excess amber glass left, I also made a batch of star ornaments.
I'm especially happy with how the plates turned out. And, as I still have a fair amount of amber glass left, you'll be seeing more variations. As this is new for me, I'd be interested in your thoughts about the colors.
