Twenty Days and Four Oxygen Tanks Later...

I finally have some finished pieces to share! Lampworking is not like riding a bike. I expected to be able to light my torch and just get right back into it, but that has not been the case. After burning four tanks of oxygen, loads of glass, lots of time and a couple of fingers (tried to pick up a piece of HOT glass, duh, such a newbie mistake) I think I'm finally getting the hang of it.



Although I have much more work to do to perfect the techniques, I'm thrilled with my progress so far.
