I hadn't made any earrings since the holidays, so to catch up with demand at the Saturday market I've been making these and many more. Some are conventional, others more unusual, with materials like powdered enamels and mica. I'll have these at the Saturday market in Las Cruces. After that I'll be taking a break for a couple of weeks, before returning on June 6. #earrings #lampwork #glass #flamework #HotGlass #glassart #handmadeglass #artyoucanwear #lascrucesnm #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts

This new necklace with a central pendant is not in my online shops, but I thought I'd share it anyway. It really is a hybrid of 2 styles I frequently use: raked trails of contrasting color, and a mix of broadly Southwestern colors, including reds, umbers, browns, and blues. It's 20.5 inches long. #glass #beads #handmade #hotglass #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #necklace #jewelry #artyoucanwear #glassart #glassartist #newmexicoglass #newmexicoartist #lascrucesnm #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin

Now that the "Mira! Las Cruces" festival is over (I had an excellent couple of days!), it's time to share some new work. I used a range of rich red and topaz shades, transparent and opaque, to make the beads. On a whim I turned the focal bead into a little humanoid figure. This is in both my Ko-fi and Etsy shops. #glass #beads #handmade #necklace #hotglass #lampwork #flamework #torchwork #studioglass #artisanglass #artyoucanwear #newmexico #lascrucesnm #redglass #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts

In addition to hot glass for our weekly market, I'm making new glass for a big show later this month. Made in the last few days: a necklace with raking designs, another in 3 shades of transparent green, a bracelet in powdered enamel on white opaque glass encased in clear, and some earrings. Watch for more new hot glass in a few days. #glass #beads #hotglass #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #artyoucanwear #handmade #studioglass #necklace #earrings #bracelet #newmexico #lascrucesnm #lascrucesart

Another necklace is this coral red and dark turquoise blue combination that I find very satisfying. The central pendant is a mix of colors I've used to resemble stones that can be found in the environment here in southern New Mexico. This necklace is 21 inches long (!), and is available in both my Ko-fi and Etsy shops. #glass #beads #handmade #necklace #jewelry #lampwork #flamework #torchwork #artyoucanwear #studioglass #artisanglass #newmexico #lascrucesnm #MastoArt

Transparent amethyst colored glass and two shades of transparent blue glass. I've added frit in mixed colors to the dark blue while it was white-hot. I'll be at the Saturday market, as usual, this week, but will be taking Saturday, the 28th off for our local No Kings III event. #glass #beads #lampwork #flamework #torchwork #artyoucanwear #handmade #blue #amethyst #necklace #jewelry #studioglass #artisanglass #lascrucesnm #newmexicoartist #farmersmarket #nokings

If you've followed my work for some time, you know I enjoy using decorative glass techniques popular in the ancient Mediterranean world Here I've used trailing that I've tooled into "raked" or feathered patterns. I never tire of this technique, as the results are always different.

This 20 inch necklace is finally finished. Inspired by Hellenistic era apotropaic eye beads, but with a selection of more transparent colors than one would find on ancient examples. When we see surviving ancient eye beads today (they were popular from the late Bronze Age onward), they are most often degraded, pitted, discolored, etc., from burial in the ground. #glass #beads #lampwork #flamework #torchwork #art #handmade #newmexico #LasCrucesNM #artyoucanwear #jewelry #necklace

The city of Las Cruces has put the brakes on spending, with City Manager Ikani Taumoepeau admitting that the city’s general fund balance had been “overstated.”
