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

I'm moving! I'll still be creating work in hot glass, offering that work at markets, festivals, etc., and my Etsy shop, but in a different place: Athens, OH, an hour from Columbus and home to Ohio University. You can still find my work on Etsy (link in profile). If you live in central or southeast Ohio, I'll see you soon!. #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin #hotglass #lampwork #lampworkglass #ohioartist #ohioart #athensohio #athensohioartist #athensohioart #Ohio #MastoArt #Handmade

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

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

Just 45 days until the big Salem Etsy Team Handmade Holiday Market. 150 vendors (including me) at the Oregon State Fairgrounds. We've had thousands of attendees in past years, buying every kind of handmade goods. Free parking, free admission, door prizes and more. I'll have lots of new work for you. More details as we get closer to the day. #handmademarket #MastoArt #holidaymarket #salemoregon #buyhandmade #buylocal #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin #hotglass #lampworkglass #artyoucanwear

One of several new pieces in my Etsy shop (link in profile). 18 inch necklace in opaque colors: carrot red, grasshopper green and yellow beads made at my torch, all from Moretti glass. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1587438883/handmade-torchwork-lampwork-glass-bead?click_key=43e09a6b0b82600e4ef384e7e7b9c17b19c9acad%3A1587438883&click_sum=786e92f3&ref=shop_home_active_15&frs=1 #MastoArt #Handmade #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #handmadeglassbeads #lampwork #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #torchwork #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #artyoucanwear #studioglass #artglass #muranoglass #realhandmade #BuyHandmade

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

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

Working on my glass sculpting skills. Use it or lose it, as they say. Here's a tiny mug with a bouquet of flowers. #hotglass #glasssculpture #glassart #glassartist #lampwork #lampworkglass #madeinoregon #oregonglass #oregonart #oregonartist #pnwglass #miniatureglass #miniaturesculpture #christofmaupin #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
