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

Turns out today was Global Work From Home Day. Guess I was late to the party. Anyway, I work from home. And here are some images of what I do with some glass and fire. #workfromhomeday #handmade #art #glass #hotglass #studioart #studioglass #artyoucanwear #lampwork #flamework #torchwork #beads #glassbeads #jewelry #design #color #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin #athensohio #buyartfromartists

I'm really pleased with this new piece, featuring high density opaque black glass with added mica powder fused to the surfaces, in silver, purple and teal. It's in my Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1828688303/handmade-hot-glass-necklace-in-opaque?click_key=3fc94cad25facac69ec8daa8227623da614a5c34%3A1828688303&click_sum=fcfea578&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #lampwork #HotGlass #Art #Artist #necklace #artyoucanwear #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin

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

Working on something festive for the upcoming holidays. #hotglass #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #glassbeads #handmade #HandmadeArt #artyoucanwear #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts

Baking soda can be used to create a texture to glass beads or other glass objects. Far left, the only effect is blending of two colors around the equator of the bead, which retains it's shine. Further right, the blending is more thorough, with a "metallic" surface appearance. Far right, bubbly surface from bursting bubbles, like some cratered distant moon. #Beads #MastoArt #handmade #handmadegass #lampworking #glassart #glassartist #HotGlass #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #AthensOhio

Something new in my Etsy shop. I used 3 types of blue to make the beads for this piece: both dark and light opaque marbled blue and transparent electric blue. I mixed electric blue and light marbled with blue enamel for the large focal bead. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1772712848/necklace-of-handmade-lampwork-glass?click_key=55625740609dcef2cf651653d867e3634a88f370%3A1772712848&click_sum=35a48eac&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #MastoArt #glass #beads #handmade #HotGlass #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #ArtYouCanWear #ArtGlass #GlassArt #StudioGlass #athensohio #madeinohio #ohioart #ohioartist #GlassBeads #glassbeadsjewelry #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin

I have over a dozen pieces available now at the Athens Hot Glass shop! Flamework glass bead necklaces in enamel colors, flameworked pendants, glass bead bracelets, and earrings in copper and sterling silver featuring my glass beads. Stop by the shop, at 21 Kern Street in Athens, to see my work and make a purchase for yourself or a friend. #handmade #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #glassbeads #glassart #glassartist #HotGlass #artyoucanwear #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #athensohio #ohioartist

It may never be pretty, but it's functional. I'm up and running in my new studio, the old metal-roofed cinder block building on the property. I've run power 150 feet to the structure, cleared it of debris, etc. and am set up with a hot head. Lots of tweaking to get the space up to the condition I'd like, but it'll do for now. #athensohio #ohioartist #ohioart #ohioglass #HotGlass #GlassArt #GlassArtist #Lampwork #torchwork #flamework #artyoucanwear #glassstudio #ChristofMaupin #PastPresentArts

I'm now listed in the Ohio Arts Council's Artists Registry, which includes visual artists, writers, musicians, and more. My profile includes my Bio, a short Artist Statement, Portfolio and links to my social media and other websites. #ohio #ohioartscouncil #artistsregistry #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin #art #artists #glass #hotglass #lampwork #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

In the midst of packing and shipping my life off to Athens, Ohio, I found time to make a proper short video of this lampwork necklace I made a couple of weeks ago.

Despite having sold much of my inventory at recent shows, I have over 40 pieces in my Etsy shop, including this one (Link: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1712658082/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=b16dbe38db634de12c422b2ac48df94eff7f9ee5%3A1712658082&click_sum=c36f94a6&ref=shop_home_active_7&frs=1 ).

Once I get settled in mid-June, I'll be back on my torch.

As I was in a flurry of work on my torch leading up to my final shows in Oregon, I made quite a few pieces I didn't have time to share. This is one: A necklace in various shades of transparent and opaque greens, browns and orange. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1712874928/handmade-lampworktorchwork-glass-bead?click_key=8bd5ee7112d5a0aac0135bf2888f2f770462eabf%3A1712874928&click_sum=0957e7dd&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #HotGlass #MastoArt #Handmade #Lampwork #GlassArt #GlassArtist #Glass #Beads #Jewelry #Necklace #StudioGlass #ArtOfTheDay #ChristofMaupin #PastPresentArts

After back-to-back very successful shows, just a week apart, my Etsy shop was seriously denuded of product! Luckily, I had made many new pieces just before the shows, and have now uploaded some of them. Here's one, featuring green, blue-green, blue, pink and red enamel powders added to the glass and encased. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1726971139/handmade-lampworktorchwork-glass-bead?click_key=f5bcc0b644e42cc2d0e0b55f4dbc09890a6989ff%3A1726971139&click_sum=16488f13&ref=shop_home_active_6&frs=1 #Handmade #HotGlass #Lampwork #Beads #MastoArt #artyoucanwear #torchwork #GlassArt #GlassArtist #PastPresentArts

Thank you so much to everyone who visited my space at yesterday's 38th Annual Sheep-to-Shawl Festival at the Willamette Heritage Center here in Salem.

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

I made a pair of tiny Christmas tree earrings, just for fun. Not in my shop, but I'll have a couple of pairs of these at the big Salem Etsy Team's Handmade Market on December 2, at the State Fairgrounds here in Salem, 10 AM - 5 PM. #handmade #MastoArt #buyhandmade #realhandmade #handmadeart #handmadejewelry #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #ArtYouCanWear #salem #salemoregon #oregonartist #earrings #lampwork #glassbeads #pastpresentarts

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 bracelet I've just finished and added to my Etsy shop. I've used silver leaf, fusing it to the darker glass while in the torch flame. All Murano glass. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1598155167/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-bracelet-in?click_key=5e3202fc9f79613e92c4864a5545654ec6ef67f6%3A1598155167&click_sum=90841705&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #glass #glassbeads #HotGlass #studioglass #glassart #glassartist #artyoucanwear #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #jewelry #bracelet #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #etsy #HolidayShopping #buyhandmade #buyartfromartists

A new piece that is closer in length (16 inches) to a choker than my standard 18-inch long necklace format. This piece features cobalt blue and deep green transparent glass with embedded opaque white glass threads, giving a sense of organic movement to each bead. In my Etsy shop now: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1573325310/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=f1edca88c06b6dd5163fcabad32fc514a9b1f8cb%3A1573325310&click_sum=9a81670f&ref=shop_home_active_12&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #lampwork #torchwork #glass #beads #necklace #artglass #studioglass #salemoregon #etsy #holidayshopping #buyhandmade #buyartfromartists #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin

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

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
