In the 90s I was in a car accident with my family. I injured my neck and we had to close our Art Glass factory.
I have been looking for pictures of the products we made back then so I could post them here, but going that far back also means finding pics of our pets. It's hard.

This plate (I think) it's Mufasa, from the Lion King series we did for Disney. Each plate is about 23" in diameter, very expensive and time consuming. The first thing the ehen CEO did was to take our fist sample and hung it in his office. Flattering, but he never even asked. My daughter is now buying these signed and numbered examples on eBay and she is rebuilding our collection. Going back that far is both nice and painful. It was a time before chronic pain, before my work had to be limited to glass earrings because lifting anything else is too hard. Then there is all our pets, our babies, from that decade. All of them with a piece of our hearts. That includes my now adult daughter. Seeing her as a toddler is also painful and pleasant. #etsy #glass #artglass #PamelaContiGlass

Here is a sentence I never thought I would have to read in many lifetimes.
I can imagine a "Muppet Fan Page" but I have no idea what a "funko pop influencer" is.
I don't know if I should feel good about it or hide in shame.

Here is some more glassword I used to make over 30 years ago. I hope the designs stood the test of time, as I am not the best person to ask.

This is a picture I took at an outdoor festival in California. The blue/azure glass is what we called "Iceware" and we made it using broken, tempered plate glass. Beside the platter there is a bowl, some candlesticks, a few boxes and a picture frame. The colored hearts (if you can't tell, that's what they are, hearts and little winged cupids) are cast glass.There are also some platters made with white glass and 18 karat gold, not unlike how ceramics are made.

I made this mosaic plate in 1990 or so. Before my injury.

I love my local library. I can check books out, I get audiobooks for those nights I can't sleep, they even have lecture series on a number of topics, music concerts and other partnerships that are simply awesome. Check out your local library, download Libby and LEARN!

A long time ago, when I still had a factory to make glass at scale, my husband and I invented a line of giftware we called "IceWare". Unfortunately, we depended on tempered glass factories making mistakes. Those are a lot rarer these days.

Iceware was made using 1/2" or 3/8" tempered plate glass, broken and then fused back together. The bowl and the candlesticks in this pictures are made that way. The "Perfume bottle" with the scarab and the plate, were commission from Walt Disney Galleries. I'll check if I can find better pictures of those.

My work table where I make my #dichroic #earrings and glass earring with gold and platinum. Yes, real gold and platinum, but a very thin layer.
