I don't think I've seen this in a long, long time, so maybe it should be brought out again.

"Low Tide"
Teableau for 08/02/25

Sometimes we feel like we're gasping for survival. May the rising tide come soon enough to carry us toward a better future.

Something new in my Ko-fi store: This necklace is 20 inches long. I used transparent red, transparent topaz, and various shades of opaque red and other warm colors of Murano glass, all with added trailing. The focal bead is red and yellow, with gold mica powder, all encased in clear. Here's the link: https://ko-fi.com/s/61a6da7e15 #handmade #art #artyoucanwear #glass #beads #handmadeglass handmadebeads #lampwork #GlassArt #GlassArtist #torchwork #flamework #necklace #jewelry

WIP. One of several. Stay tuned. #glass #glassart #glassartist #glassbeads #hotglass #beads #lampworkbeads #flameworking #toechworking #artyoucanwear #athenscountyohio #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #handmade #pastpresentarts

Here's a little something I made at the torch, now in my Ko-fi shop. Various shades of opaque red and orange-red, with the large focal bead rolled in shades of blue enamel while white hot. You can find it here: https://ko-fi.com/s/1732aeeb9f #handmade #HandmadeArt #handmadejewelry #handmadebeads #handmadeglass #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #glass #beads #glassbeads #glassart #glassartist #studioglass #artyoucanwear

Another little something simple: opaque green and orange-red beads I made on the torch, along with brass pendants I made by cutting, annealing and stamping the metal.

The only thing that's as much fun as working with some new colors is opening the box! #Lampwork #lampworking #lampworkbeads #lampworkglass #torchwork #flameworking #hotglass #artyoucanwear #effetre #morettiglass #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin #handmadeglass #handmadeglassbeads #glassbeads #glassbeadsjewelry #beads #studioglass #artglass #glassart #glassartist

I've used a transparent smoke colored glass to make these beads, along with champagne and white overlaid with dark purple that appears black in all but bright natural light, and some opaque earth tones. I've also used two-part hand held presses, tong presses and a corduroy marver to create the unusual shapes and textures https://www.etsy.com/listing/1791491981/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=66f2724b349e4dadf7b157d80fd4793f83aa187b%3A1791491981&click_sum=287971db&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #lampworking #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #HotGlass #glassart #glassartist #christofmaupin #pastpresentart #athensohio #madeinohio #handmade #MastoArt

#Tea #Teableau #TeaCozy #TeaCosy #GreenTea #Cats #JasmineTea #Lenox #Crystal #GlassArt #VintageChina #AdagioTea #Art #Drawing #Quilting #Handmade

Just a little something for a Thursday. A bracelet in opaque navy blue glass, with applied frit in pale blue, light green, cream, and pale pink. I'll have this and dozens of hot glass necklaces, earrings, bracelets, pendants, wine glass charms, loose beads, and more at the Alonzo Weed Festival in Amesville, this Saturday at 5 PM. #HandmadeGlass #hotglass #glassart #glassbeads #lampwork #flameworking #torchwork #handmade #artyoucanwear #madeinohio #Amesville #alonzoweedfestival #MastoArt

I haven't been posting much lately, as I've been busy in the studio with multiple works in progress. Here's a sneak peek at one of them. #glassart #flameworking #handmadebeads #HandmadeGlass #madeinohio #artyoucanwear #glassbeads #artyoucanwear #handmade #MastoArt

Something recently completed in my shop. I've used 3 shades of green Murano glass to make these beads. If you like green, this is for you! https://www.etsy.com/listing/1773552489/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-necklace-in #MastoArt #Handmade #glassart #glassartist #hotglass #HandmadeGlass #glassbeads #handmadebeads #artyoucanwear #lampwork #torchwork #flameworking #MadeInOhio

From the vault, so to speak. A 6.75 inch bracelet with a toggle closure, and beads in super clear with added red and purple-violet frit that I further encased in clear for depth. Now added to my shop. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1747780847/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-bracelet-in?click_key=704a2594edb1fc52de6a5ccf8407060ce0f63243%3A1747780847&click_sum=c8ff9d73&ref=shop_home_active_2&frs=1 #handmade #glass #beads #bracelet #lampwork #jewelry #hotglass #artyoucanwear #valcoxfrit #muranoglass #glassartist #glassart #MastoArt

"Cat B'lue" teableau for 06/03/24

#Tea #Teableau #TeaCozy #TeaCosy #HerbalTea #VintageChina #VintageGlass #MuranoGlass #ArtGlass #GlassArt #Cats #Oregon #MotherMullein

A new piece in my Etsy shop. This 18.50 inch necklace features barrel shaped beads in dark transparent blue that I've encased in a pale amethyst glass, and donut shaped beads in marbled blue glass, with silver colored spacers. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1714976045/lampwork-glass-bead-necklace-in-marbled?click_key=a51d755aee89655c6601248d63514dd09dd54343%3A1714976045&click_sum=662f2af5&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #HotGlass #lampwork #beads #handmade glass #handmadebeads #glassbeads #jewelry #necklace #artyoucanwear #studioglass #glassart #glassartist #salemoregon #pnw #pastpresentart #christofmaupin #glassdesign #artlovers #artoftheday

I'm still having fun playing with my new toy, a two-part, hand-held brass glass press mold for making hexagonal beads. I finished this piece yesterday, using a range of blue glass, including marbled, opaque and transparent: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1691203576/lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead-necklace?click_key=0a72ef4556c07bc9856b72a8985d4cb24dc7e3ed%3A1691203576&click_sum=0ba44354&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #glass #HotGlass #HandmadeGlass #GlassArt #GlassArtist #Lampwork #Flamework #Torchwork #StudioGlass #StudioArt

And one last piece for today. Not quite an "oldie but goodie," as I only made it a few months ago, but one that I haven't really shared on social media much. 19.5 inches long, so a full length necklace. When making the beads, I chose glass in colors similar to the national flag of Italy (it's Murano glass, after all). https://www.etsy.com/listing/1631882899/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=27f7f08a11956da602c527d0d3b1dff2fd11d40c%3A1631882899&click_sum=50712499&ref=shop_home_feat_3&frs=1 #Handmade #MastoArt #glass #beads #HotGlass #lampwork #jewelry #artyoucanwear #GlassArt #GlassArtist #MuranoGlass #pnw #torchwork #flamework

I'll be a vendor at this market at the State Fairgrounds here in Salem. I'll be there Saturday, March 9 only. Looking forward to seeing some of my Oregon friends there. #glass #beads #handmade #jewelry #HotGlass #artyoucanwear #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #glassbeads #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #glassart #glassartist #studioglass #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #vendormarket #artisanmarket #makersmarket #handcrafted #supportlocalbusiness #shoplocal #supportlocalartists #salemoregon

I used simple clear glass to make these beads, rolling them in colored enamel powders while red-hot, then encasing them in another layer of clear glass. Spring isn't quite here, but these remind me of a field of wildflowers. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1683374829/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=d42ca07c9ca13306311f26c7307745aaa7c2fc14%3A1683374829&click_sum=6c1a691d&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #glass #beads #necklace #jewelry #Etsy #oregon #pnw #salemoregon #ArtYouCanWear #GlassArt #GlassArtist #ArtOfTheDay #MuranoGlass #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #HotGlass

Something new. I used various shades of red and amber glass as a base, overlaid with trails of blue and teal, which I then raked. Inspired by historic Venetian beads, so I naturally used Murano glass. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1680263273/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=f73401ad77c93b559a97495e72139ca8bd1ffda8%3A1680263273&click_sum=3cd20202&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #glass #beads #necklace #jewelry #Etsy #oregon #pnw #salemoregon #ArtYouCanWear #GlassArt #GlassArtist #ArtOfTheDay #MuranoGlass

If you follow me, you know I don't do special work for holidays. I make what I want to make, not what other people want me to make, and I don't conform to the algorithms. But since I'll be working on some sculptural pieces the next few weeks, I thought I'd do some hearts. The one on the chain will be in my Etsy by week's end. #beads #glass #jewelry #pendant #hearts #heartofglass #hotglass #glassartist #glassart #studioglass #studioart #lampwork #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #oregon #pnw

A short clip from the studio this evening. I'm adding a strand of marbled opaque charcoal glass to a bead of marbled opaque sandstone glass. Then I'll make another in the reverse combination, and so on. Watch for the finished piece in a few days. #MastoArt #beads #glass #handmade #studioart #glassartist #glassart #handmadebeads #handmadeglass #beads #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #hotglass

I've been making lots of work with purple and violet shades of glass lately. I think Winter makes me shift to that end of the spectrum. In any event, here are some violet beads I made for earrings. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1531762498/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-earrings-in?click_key=49745c526dae25052716a86e43082211a0fe4a46%3A1531762498&click_sum=ff2fbb65&ref=shop_home_active_29&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #earrings #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #pnw #oregon #salemoregon #artyoucanwear #jewelry #beads #glassbeads #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #studioglass

I've been finishing as much new work as possible, as it's about to get too cold to work in my studio, at least for a few days. I've used bright colors for this new flamework glass bead necklace. 18 inches on faux leather cord. In my Etsy shop. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1640983480/handmade-18-inch-lampwork-torchwork?click_key=8e62adbc1fc262fb25e300cadef9d361e005bf69%3A1640983480&click_sum=331b2000&ref=shop_home_active_2&frs=1 #glass #beads #glassbeads #hotglass #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #jewelry #necklace #glassart #glassartist #artyoucanwear #studioglass #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #salemoregon #studiolife #pnw

Added to my shop today: I used transparent shades of violet-blue glass, and opaque blue and purple glass to make the beads. This necklace is 19 inches long. In my shop here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1651636425/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-necklace-in?click_key=2b4f04e395bb4f4d97921c80a434e64c302660ed%3A1651636425&click_sum=5d1980d6&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #HotGlass #GlassArt #GlassArtist #ArtYouCanWear #StudioGlass #beads #GlassBeads #HandmadeGlass #HandmadeBeads #Lampwork #Torchwork #Flamework #PNW #SalemOregon #StudioGlass #StudioArt #EtsyShop

Happy first Friday of 2024. I shot this little video last night. When your beads have cooled, you've cleaned them up, assembled them, added spacers and a toggle, and you hold it up to the light in your studio and think: Yeah, that works. It's good. I'm loving those shades of transparent purple. #MastoArt #Handmade #glassbeads #studioglass #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #salemoregon #pnw #artyoucanwear #hotglass #glassart #glassart #studioglass #purple #beads #jewelry #studiolife

Finishing up a new piece with shades of blue encased in clear, and bits of shiny coppery gold. Not in my shop yet, but will be soon, along with a few more new pieces. Stay tuned... #handmade #MastoArt #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #lampwork #studioglass #glassbeads #handmadebeads #handmadeglass #artyoucanwear #pnw #salemoregon

I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving Day! Saturday, December 2 is my final show of the year here in Salem, the big Salem Etsy Team Handmade Market at the State Fairgrounds. Until then, I'm posting one piece of my work every day. Here's today's selection: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1401742047/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-heart?click_key=deae78e7ecd8a2a5a020b927e6f0431fb4dfe857%3A1401742047&click_sum=88ab67c2&ref=shop_home_active_16&frs=1 #buyhandmade #realhandmade #handmadeart #handmadeglass #handmadejewelry #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #ArtYouCanWear #studioglass #salem #salemoregon #madeinoregon #oregonart #oregonartist #holidaymarket

This is done, and I'm pleased. 18 inches long. Dark transparent purple with applied and raked trails of marbled light opaque blue. The inspiration was a Hellenistic glass bead necklace in the Israel Museum, in cobalt blue with wavy white trailing, but as I was working, it evolved: more like antique Venetian beads.#glass #lampwork #handmade #jewelry #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #studioglass #handmadeglass #arthistory #glasshistory #venetianglass #handmademarket #handmadeoregon #handmadegifts

My final in-person show of 2023: Saturday, December 2, 10 AM - 5 PM, Salem Etsy Team Handmade Market at the Oregon State Fairgrounds. 150 artisan vendors, free admission, free parking, loads of raffle prizes.

Saturday, December 2 is my final show of the year here in Salem, the big Salem Etsy Team Handmade Market at the State Fairgrounds. In the lead up to that, I'm posting one piece of my work every day. Here's today's selection: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1304023217/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-necklace-in?click_key=ffd50b14cf647ec9bceece9ccc7e347c07264406%3A1304023217&click_sum=0cb36f61&ref=shop_home_active_46&frs=1 #MastoArt #Handmade #buyhandmade #realhandmade #handmadeart #handmadejewelry #handmadeglass #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #ArtYouCanWear #salem #salemoregon #oregonartist

A new necklace in my Etsy shop. I've used a wide range of powdered enamel colors and frit combinations on clear glass. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1587671178/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=43877a55f8cdb1c144cfdc4cee440b036c2d5da0%3A1587671178&click_sum=9b8f54cc&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #glass #GlassArt #GlassArtist #StudioGlass #LampworkGlass #TorchworkGlass #GlassBeads #HandmadeGlass #HandmadeBeads #Necklace #Jewelry #ArtYouCanWear #PastPresentArts #ChristofMaupin #SalemOregon

A new piece I've made using transparent light rose, clear, and light yellow glass, over which I've applied enamels in pale pink, orange, beige and yellow. The focal bead is clear glass with added opaque threads and orange enamel. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1573296006/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=153777117b994c8669f1a80e50dc8892a50d746e%3A1573296006&click_sum=9dcbfd12&ref=shop_home_active_13&frs=1 #hotglass #beads #glassbeads #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #lampwork #lampworking #artyoucanwear #holidayshopping #buyhandmade #buyartfromartists #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #glassart #glassartist #salemoregon

A stand-alone bead of Murano electric blue and bright green transparent glass, with splashes of purple and marbled blue opaque, some slices of Millefiori cane, and a dusting of blue and green enamel powders. Excuse my nails! Between torch time and other studio activity, my hands are a wreck. #MastoArt #Handmade #hotglass #glassartist #glassart #studioglass #lampworkglass #torchworkglass #artyoucanwear #beads #glassbeads #handmadebeads #handmadeglass #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #salemoregon

This sweet beauty is sold and on its way shortly to a customer here in Oregon. This beautiful Murano topaz glass goes really well with transparent electric blue, and I'm working on another piece now that will feature those 2 colors. #hotglass #lampwork #lampworkbeads #lampworkjewelry #glassbeadnecklace #glassart #glassartist #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #madeinoregon #oregonglass #madeinthepnw #pnwglass #salemoregon #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #sold

Overthinking a project leads to inertia. Rather than becoming frustrated, it's best to just clear the mind, pick up some glass, any glass, fire up the torch and make something. These beads are clear glass with a thick trail of opaque marbled blue, encased in another layer of clear. Simple. Looks great in direct sunlight. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1514135051/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-necklace-in?click_key=8d3256097f622dd5e4a832b76083df8b12540444%3A1514135051&click_sum=c9b5b38e&ref=shop_home_active_1&pro=1&frs=1 #lampworkglass #hotglass #necklace #handmade #beads #muranoglass #glassart #glassartist #artyoucanwear #madeinoregon #pnw #christofmaupin #salemoregon

I haven't been posting much lately because I've been in my studio working long hours. Sneak peek at a couple of works in progress. I have a series of pieces to create for a gallery here in Salem (more on that in a few weeks), as well as a long checklist of works for upcoming shows and my Etsy shop. I'll post finished work here as it becomes available. #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #lampwork #lampworkglass #lampworkjewelry #beads #glassbeads #oregonglass #salemoregon #christofmaupin #MastoArt

Working on my glass sculpting skills. Use it or lose it, as they say.

You can't go wrong with black and white. A little two-tone bracelet in my Etsy shop. Black and white opaque Murano glass with a decorative pewter toggle. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1504394069/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-bracelet-in?click_key=0e645d37700b679448cfdb00647adbe3882c6ec0%3A1504394069&click_sum=a3927696&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #hotglass #lampworkjewelry #lampworkbeads #handmadebeads #glassbeads #bracelets #beadedbracelets #torchwork #flamework #twotone #blackandwhite #madeinoregon #salemoregon #pnw #oregonglass #glassart #glassartist #artyoucanwear #MastoArt

Just a tiny implosion bead, imploding its way through life... #glass #glassart #glassartist #beads #implosionbead #implosionglass #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #MastoArt

Making more hot glass earrings to replenish my stocks, as I sell so many. No two are alike, which may be why they sell so well. These are never in my Etsy shop. You'll need to track me down at a show, fair or festival. I post a schedule on the front page of my Etsy shop (link in profile). #earrings #glassbeads #hotglass #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #lampworkjewelry #torchwork #handmadebeads #christofmaupin #madeinoregon #oregonglass #pnwartist #oregonartist #glassart #glassartist #salemoregon

New in my shop, something with a woodsy, earthy feel. Flameworking enamels (2 shades of pale flesh tone, a mossy green, a chocolate brown, a pale transparent yellow, and a pale blue-grey) sandwhiched between layers of Murano clear, with added combinations of frit: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1485228055/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-necklace?click_key=28a4a804929372d2e0b186b76ff0709ee3d24160%3A1485228055&click_sum=82da8a15&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #hotglass #glassbeads #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #lampworkjewelry #necklace #jewelrydesign #enamel #flamework #torchwork #frit #glassfrit #glassart #glassartist #madeinoregon #salemoregon #christofmaupin

What a great day I had yesterday at Willamette Heritage Center's Sheep to Shawl Festival! Amazing staff and volunteers, smart and engaged visitors / customers, and plenty of fun for all. Here's a small sample of the work I sold yesterday (earrings not shown, as I sold so many pairs!). #willametteheritagecenter #sheeptoshawl #art #buyartfromartists #glass #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #lampwork #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #lampworkjewelry #salemoregon

Catch me 2 weeks from today at the Willamette Heritage Center 10 AM-4 PM for the 38th Annual Sheep to Shawl Festival. I'll have lots of new hot glass work for sale. There will be sheep (of course), llamas, alpacas and other furry friends, textile artists, lace makers, a blacksmith, and more. Free, plenty of parking. See you then. #sheeptoshawlfestival #hotglass #lampworkglass #torchwork #flameworking #Mothersday2023 #christofmaupin #pastpresentart #glassart #glassartist #madeinoregon
