#studioglass — Public Fediverse posts

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 made these beads at the torch using transparent red and topaz glass, arranging the red beads to one side, and topaz to the other. The focal bead is red glass encased in clear, with fused gold mica on the surface. Handmade glass art from my studio.

Sometimes, when working on a larger piece, I pause for a bit and just make something else, like a random bead, pendant, or sculpture. This is a large, thick pendant bead with a core of fire engine red opaque glass, and marbling in other opaque colors, including teal, orange, grey, beige and yellow. I've mounted it on brass wire, before suspending it from a faux leather cord. #glass #beads #handmade #lampwork #glassart #glassartist #glassbeads #glasspendant #studioglass #artyoucanwear #athensohio

Something very red. Transparent and semi opaque red and orange-red. You can find this in my Ko-fi shop (copy and paste link): https://ko-fi.com/christofmaupin07/shop #lampwork #hotglass #glassart #artyoucanwear #torchwork #glassartist #handmade #glass #beads #necklace #studioglass

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.

Here's a little something I made recently. A 19-inch long necklace of clear glass beads I rolled in colored enamels while white hot, then encased in more clear glass. It's in my Ko-fi shop, here: https://ko-fi.com/s/e53cc19c1d #handmade #MastoArt #hotglass #lampworking #flameworking #artyoucanwear #Studioglass #glassart #glassartist

I've been taking lots of work out of my Etsy shop and putting it into my Ko-fi shop. So the next several things I share with you will be links to work now in my Ko-fi. And, of course, if you really like any of it, feel free to make a purchase there or become a supporter for as little as $3 per month. Here's a new pair of hot glass bead earrings: https://ko-fi.com/s/fa229ca260 #Handmade #MastoArt #Glass #Studioglass #studioart #artyoucanwear #lampwork #beads #glassbeads #earrings

This is very similar to a piece I created and posted here a couple of weeks ago, using the same baking soda technique, but I used a wider and brighter range of colors. Overall, I like this one better than the previous example. It's in my Etsy shop now (link in my profile). #handmade #glass #hotglass #lampwork #torchwork #artyoucanwear #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #lampworkjewelry #beads #studioglass #artglass #etsyshop #etsyfinds #necklace

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 used canes of green, rose and blue glass with encased strands of opaque white to make the beads for this 18-inch necklace. The white strands give the beads a sense of movement. The colors suggest the holidays, but this could be worn anytime. It's in my Etsy shop now: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1810739971/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=f8f3ec3eafc2ad4ff7ab7bbd799da4ebc09a5c5a%3A1810739971&click_sum=e5e07965&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #glass #hotglass #lampwork #torchwork #artyoucanwear #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #lampworkjewelry #beads #studioglass #artglass #etsyshop #etsyfinds #MastoArt

A while back I posted a video showing the effects of baking soda on lampwork soda-lime glass. Well, here's a finished piece in that technique. Note the wide range of surface textures and color blends. This is 18 inches long and in my Etsy shop now: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1794464717/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-hot-glass?click_key=aa61d33564c968ca3095d9ee1a43eb2aeb0eb392%3A1794464717&click_sum=5a41e307&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #lampwork #torchwork #hotglass #handmade #ArtYouCanWear #glassart #studioglass #MastoArt

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

Something new in my Etsy shop: I made these beads based on techniques and styles found in Anglo-Saxon beads found in England from the mid-4th to 7th Century CE. This piece is 19 inches long. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1783900995/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-necklace-in?click_key=a7088d24ccfc52a7661bdd403756c629b97f7e84%3A1783900995&click_sum=45cb1cfb&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #HotGlass #lampwork #beads #handmade #artyoucanwear #StudioGlass #ArtGlass #MadeInOhio #AthensOhio #MastoArt

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. What a great way to close out my last show in Oregon before relocating! Here are a few of the items I sold to the very engaged and enthusiastic visitors. #HotGlass #GlassArt #GlassArtist #ArtYouCanWear #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #handmade #buyhandmade #shoplocal #shophandmade #pastpresentarts #ChristofMaupin #studioart #studioglass

Find me this Saturday at Sheep-to-Shawl in Salem, Oregon. This will be my last show in Oregon before relocating. #glass #handmade #HotGlass #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #art #studioglass #artglass #artyoucanwear #shoplocal #shophandmade #buyhandmade #buyartfromartists #salemoregon #pnw

Another new necklace this morning. I used semi-opaque and transparent glass in pink, orange-red, yellow, purple, violet, green and various shades of blue to make these chunky drop-shaped beads. 19 inches long. In my shop here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1708880163/lampwork-flamework-glass-bead-necklace?click_key=4fff925d1aecffc9b3e060f6dcd41e012afe3bba%3A1708880163&click_sum=7921a646&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #handmade #MastoArt #HotGlass #GlassArt #GlassArtist #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #pnw #oregon #SalemOregon #StudioGlass #StudioArt #ArtYouCanWear

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 now for something completely different! This eclectic piece features sculptural "beads" I made at the torch, all with applied silver leaf, an enameled copper pendant, and more pendants of hammered bronze with concentric designs. Definitely different, but fun to make. And I know someone out there is going to want this. Here's the link: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1653672144/handmade-lampwork-glass-necklace-with?click_key=880ff735e6475ff997d08131f435d19f3f8721d7%3A1653672144&click_sum=0e3da7b5&ref=shop_home_active_2&frs=1 #Handmade #MastoArt #HotGlass #GlassArt #GlassArtist #Beads #necklace #jewelry #ArtYouCanWear #PNW #oregon #StudioGlass #StudioArt

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

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

Well, I thought I was all done with markets this year, but here's one last show for those last minute shoppers. I'll be there Saturday only, 11-5, at 1105 Edgewater St NW in West Salem. Drop by if you're in the neighborhood. Definitely the last chance to find me in-person this year. #handmade #MastoArt #buyhandmade #buylocal #buylocalart #artisanmarket #lastminuteshopping #salemoregon #pnw #glass #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #studioglass #studioart #artyoucanwear #lampwork #flameworking

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

I periodically sort through my leftovers - excess beads from a project, some a bit wonky, experiments, etc. - and stitch together a complete necklace or bracelet. Here's the latest example: feels a bit ancient, like something excavated. The lentil shaped focal bead has a slice of Millefiori cane melted in. #handmade #MastoArt #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #lampworking #millefiori #crazyquilt #artyoucanwear #studioglass #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #salemoregon
