June 25-26 2020 Fort Collins, Colorado


From my bike ride this evening. The trees along the river and McMurry pond. 

Cool cloud reflections. On the sign at the water park. 

Sunset tonight.

I got my flat lap up and running and made this faceted/polished piece. I was sweeping up the garage and the dust in this sunbeam is interesting. I am easily amused!

I made this one today. Interesting shot of the sun I took on my bike ride tonight. Looks like the stop light is the sun. 

Most of the clouds went away for actual sunset. But not bad as a backdrop for dinner. Rainy day. Some of the lilies in the yard. 

I went to the Mask exhibit at the Fort Collins Museum of art.  It was very interesting. My favorite was Thor Rockmoninoff made with rocks. The artist is a rock balance artist.  And I am always drawn to the glass ones. The last ones are high school students entries. These really cool clouds were part of a big storm that we only got the very edge of. 

Most of this storm passed north east of us. Good thing, it was huge with lots of lightening. Sunset was lovely over Riverside street. 

For years I have been trying to make a glass piece of this photo I took of John in this lake in the cypress trees in Florida. Finally just dove in, it is not the same, can't cut all those squiggly lines, but it is coming out cool. I have been working on making more faceted, polished jewels. I am getting better and faster at it. The square shape is pretty boring. Last night I made the triangle and decided I like the organic shapes better, more fun. One of the squares fell off the deck onto the concrete below, I think they jewels would rather be organic.
