This isn't in my online shops, but thought I'd share this 16.5 inch long necklace, just a bit longer than choker length. I kept it short because when worn, the pendant that serves as a focal bead increases the length a bit. Earthy colors. #glass #handmadeglass #lampwork #lampworkglass #beads #glassbeads #glassbeadjewelry #flamework #torchwork #artyoucanwear #necklace #jewelry #glassart #glassartist #newmexico #lascrucesnm #newmexicoartist #studioglass #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin

A new piece in my Ko-fi shop, with a rather geological theme. This was fun to make, with lots of layering and blending of various opaque shades, including marbled black and maroon: https://ko-fi.com/s/9f11441593 #handmade #MastoArt #glass #lampworking #lampworkglass #artyoucanwear #jewelry #necklace #LasCrucesNM #NewMexico #NewMexicoGlass #NewMexicoArtist #geologyinspired #geology #handmadeglass #beads #glassbeads #handmadebeads

What a week! Out on the streets for protests & vigils 3 times this week, but I did get some work done. Every bracelet I had sold at the final markets of "25, so I'm making more. Here are a couple of new examples, one bright, the other geological. Glass handmade on the torch. Posting some on Ko-fi next week. #glass #HotGlass #lampworking #glassbeads #lampworkglass #lampworkbracelet #bracelets #newmexicoart #pastpresentart #lascrucesnm #christofmaupin #handmadeglass #artyoucanwear #MastoArt

One more post with a few bits 'n bobs before I make the move to Las Cruces, New Mexico. See you again in about 10 days. Until then, visit my Ko-fi shop (copy and paste): https://ko-fi.com/christofmaupin07/shop #glass #GlassArt #glassartist #glassbeads #glassbeadsjewelry #hotglass #handmade #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #lampwork #lampworkglass #torchwork #flamework #StudioGlass #studioartist #ArtYouCanWear #ChristofMaupin #PastPresentArts #lascruces #newmexico

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

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

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

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
