ABOUT THE PIECE

These crystal healing wands are infused with the energies of various gems and crystals, many of them are embellished with solid copper wire that is a wonderful conductor of metaphysical energies. If you are not into the metaphysical properties of minerals and crystals then these are unique and one of a kind conversation pieces, I have had many clients buy these that are into movies such as "Harry Potter" and wanted something decorative and unique.

Each wand is unique and one of a kind, no two are ever exactly alike. They have combinations of various gems, minerals and crystals that are married to each other with copper wire, which as mentioned also serves as a conductor of the energies to the holder of the wand.

You will find an overall picture of various wands that are in stock, as well as pictures of past wands that I have made. Please contact me for availability. I can also send you close up photos of any of the wands you are interested in.

In addition, I can custom make any wand for you. In fact, I can also take any stones, gems, crystals or other findings you have and incorporate them into these wands. Contact me for more information and pricing.

My goal is to create a little piece of art that you can hand down to the next generation and beyond. They are made in my studio by my hand, in the good ole USA. In addition, I try to source my materials from the USA that I use in these little works of art. And most if not all of the clear crystals in these wands, as well as the sculptural pieces I make, are Arkansas Quartz Crystals. Which are some of the most sought after quartz crystals in the world.

Approximate size is: varies (contact me for details and close up photos)

If you would like one of these custom made with different colors of glass I can do that, in addition I can make them different sizes as well. Contact me for details and pricing.

Remember, when you purchase from an independent artist, you are supporting someone that has worked hard to develop their skills, knowledge and creativity. With those dollars, the artist is able to pay their bills, buy food for their family and in return keep those dollars in the local market.

I appreciate all of you who have purchased my work and are about to, without you I could not do this!

Contact me for any additional photos of any of these wands. (scroll down for more photos) and for S/H charges. I also ship internationally.

NOTE IN REGARDS TO CLEANING

Do not use a cleaning product that contains ammonia as this will create oxidation (a white powdery build up on the metal) of the piece. A soft cloth and mild dishwashing detergent may be used, wring out excess and dry immediately.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

I have been doing Stained Glass work, and working with glass as a medium, off and on since 1988. I was very heavy into art while in school which lead my shop trades teacher to ask me if I would volunteer some of my time to do artwork and help in the production of some stained glass panels for a display to compete in a state championship for VICA (Vocational Industrial Clubs of America).

I said yes and found myself working in a local stained glass studio, with one of the sweetest little ole ladies around, her name was Beatrice Stebbing. I guess she saw something in me because she contacted me and asked me if I would like to come to work for her, and I said yes. So while still in High School I started working for her, and there began my career in stained glass.

In the years since I have worked for other studios as well as operating my own studio for many years.

I am known for my unique 3 dimensional glass sculptures as well as very unique one of a kind designs. I enjoy creating "interactive" art, which is why you will find me creating items such as; pyramids that open, wands that can be held or sculptures that contain kaleidoscopes, which promotes the "viewer" of the art to actually interact with the art.

I utilize age old techniques and combine those techniques with modern materials. Adding to that my years of experience, my goal is to create works of art that will stand the test of time, which will allow them to be handed down from generation to generation.

I am skilled in not only the production, but the instruction of the following;

- Leading (Traditional leaded glass work using lead construct as well as zinc, copper, brass and more)

- Copper foil (aka Tiffany style)

- Dalle de verre glass (aka faceted slab glass)

- English weaving (a solderless technique of construction where all but he border is "woven")

- Beveled and custom beveling

- Etching (multi layer sandblast etching as well as acid etching)

- Carving (carving into thick glass using a sandblaster which gives depth and detail)

- Torch work (aka lamp working and glass bead making)

- Kiln work (fusing and slumping)

- Painting and firing (age old techniques that allows the addition of detail to glass via painting and then firing in kiln)

- 3 dimensional work (kaleidoscopes, boxes, lampshades and sculptural type work)

- Restorations (skilled in the restoration of turn of the century works)

- Repairs (if it is broken, I can almost always fix it)

If you are wanting a custom piece created, or have a piece that is damaged and requires repair, contact me for a quote.

Growing up in Northwest Arkansas ( NWA ) I consider this area my home. I currently reside in Northeast Oklahoma and still consider the Ozarks my home. I am available and can provide service anywhere, for any project. I ship through out the United States as well as Internationally.
