OT.........some general news










I am still working hard on soldered jewelry, purse mirrors, and sculpts for the Big Sky holiday boutique on November 20th! However, I am taking a much needed break starting tomorrow. I am going to Tucson to visit my dear girlfriend, Judy Roads Pickrell,a fellow respiratory therapist from many years ago from my days at Good Samaritan hospital in Dayton, Ohio. We will be going on an all girl trip to her cabin in Flagstaff where I will be teaching some simple sculpting classes. The girlfriends will learn to make glitter pumpkins and snowmen...simple, but magical little sculps.
Also, I just have to announce that my very talented daughter-in-law passed her California state boards for cosmetology today. I was her model and let me tell you that I saw first hand what those candidates have to go through to get licensed and it isn't easy!
Christine is a phenomenal artist in her own right. She is not only an excellent photographer, but she also does hair, make up and her own costume designs. Please visit her magical website here:

See the clothing in the opening photo (in the antique clock)? She designed and made each piece including Grant's hat! She is getting non stop bookings and she also does wedding shoots including hair and make up for the bride and bride's maids.
If you live in the Orange County or LA area, you might want to schedule your own special photo shoot with Christine. It will be like no other you have ever experienced.

I am posting a few of her other photos. She designed and sewed the blue dress with the matching blue gloves...fit for the red carpet! She also designed and created the swimsuit, the red dress, and the Roman clothing. Amazing! And yes, that is her own real rooster sitting in that pan!
