I'll Have a Puppy Cone, Please!

So it's not quite time for the dog days of summer, right now it's more like the survival of spring. Between dust storms and cold fronts you never know what you will face when you leave the house here in West Texas. Looking at tomorrow's forecast of 90, it made me think of Sheridans Frozen Custard. That becomes a weekly necessity during the summer. Even Zoey enjoys her own puppy cone.

Spring has Sprung

So the time has come to pack up the car for another show. I have been working in starts and stops hunched over my desk piecing together some new creations.

I have also cleared some space in my studio and discovered a metals work bench just waiting to be cleaned and filled with tools. In the process, copper was unearthed and hammered within a inch of its old life to start a new life as some awesome pendants. They will be making their first appearance this Friday.
