Artist: Air and Earth Designs I've always loved beads and color - I first got into beading when I worked for a fabric store during my college years. Color is a major inspiration of mine - I adore the way color plays with light. I bought lampwork for my own jewelry creations for awhile, and just fell in love with the medium.
My beads are made from Effetre (Moretti), Vetrofond (Murano), Bullseye, Czech, and/or Lauscha glass, then annealed in a digitally controlled kiln for lasting durability.

 | Artist: Barbara Sucherman Designs, Ltd. My jewelry is predominantly sterling silver with gold fill accents. The magic I felt in my painting began to show itself in my jewelry. My fused glass stone is hand cut from many pieces of colored glass, which I fire in a kiln at 1700 degrees. The sterling silver shapes are individually formed, textured and polished to fit each glass cabochon. No two are alike. Fused glass became my palette.

 | Artist: Bob Gent Glassworks After earning my BFA in Graphic Design and spending many years working for other artists, I designed and built my own studio. This studio is a small shop with the capacity to melt one hundred pounds of crystal at a time and working capability for a twelve by twenty-four inch piece, though most work is on a smaller scale.
My style employs tightly controlled, bright colors, simple shapes and a playful design sense. Much of my work is enhanced by the decorations which start out as long rods of color (or canes) that I make from imported glass.

The blanks are embellished with the innards consisting of a huge variety of beads, rhinestones, letters, pins/buttons, findings and found objects. These materials range from being made of plastic and acrylic to glass and precious stones. I use all types of glues as resins as adhesives.

 | Artist: Brandi Brown Designs In the spring of 2002, I designed my first necklace after searching and searching for the perfect color combination and style to go with an outfit. I experimented with some beads and colors and created a necklace that was perfect. I continued to operate that way until the winter of 2005 when I left my full time job and started my own business, Brandi Brown Designs.

Artist: Bread and Badger All the glass pieces we make are etched completely by hand. The designs are drawn or painted onto the glass, and then the design is carved out with a high-speed rotary tool and diamond burrs. This gives each piece a bit of personality and character.
