This isn't in my online shops, but thought I'd share this 16.5 inch long necklace, just a bit longer than choker length. I kept it short because when worn, the pendant that serves as a focal bead increases the length a bit. Earthy colors. #glass #handmadeglass #lampwork #lampworkglass #beads #glassbeads #glassbeadjewelry #flamework #torchwork #artyoucanwear #necklace #jewelry #glassart #glassartist #newmexico #lascrucesnm #newmexicoartist #studioglass #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin

Finally, one more piece that sold so quickly I didn't have time to share (I'll stop here, lest I become tedious). Another bracelet, in marbled opaque black glass and opaque pastel white. #glass #beads #bracelet #jewelry #handmade #lampwork #hotglass #glassartist #newmexicoart #lascrucesnm #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin #artyoucanwear #MastoArt

Now that we are in the slightly confusing grey zone between Christmas and New Year, I thought I'd share pieces I didn't have time to film before the holidays. This one is my annual "crazy quilt" necklace, comprised of many shapes, sizes and colors of handmade glass beads left over from other projects. It's in my Ko-fi and Etsy shops (links in profile). #glass #beads #handmade #lampwork #flamework #hotglass #artyoucanwear #studioglass #necklace #jewelry #newmexico #lascruces #glassartist

Yesterday our Saturday market became a Sunday mini-market, as Saturday was the Veteran's Day parade. Just 3 blocks long, instead of our usual 6. It was chilly, but with glorious sunshine. When a customer is deciding whether to buy a piece, I suggest they take it into the sunshine. That usually clinches the sale. It's the magic of glass. #glass #HotGlass #lampwork #flamework #torchwork #handmadeglass #artisanglass #studioglass #glassart #glassartist #artyoucanwear #newmexico #lascruces #sunshine

A fusion of worlds: I've used New Mexico colors (turquoise, yellow, red) to make beads that would have been typical of the Roman Empire in the 3rd-4th Centuries. Trailing of light colors over dark, eyes on the beads, the barrel shapes, very typical. So a fusion of two very different times/places. In my Etsy and Ko-fi shops (links in profile). #glass #hotglass #handmadeglass #lampwork #beads #artyoucanwear #flamework #glassart #glassartist #lascruces #newmexico #studioglass #handmade #MastoArt

Making blue things lately, perhaps because the weather is cooling (at least by southern New Mexico standards). I used transparent cobalt blue and emerald green glass to make the beads. With a few concessions to modernity, this is a copy of an ancient Roman glass bead necklace of the 2nd or early 3rd Century. It's long, at 21 inches. In my Etsy and Ko-fi shops (links in my profile). #artyoucanwear #studioglass #artisanglass #glassart #glassartist #newmexicoart #lascrucesnm #handmade #MastoArt

Another good market this past Saturday. One highlight was someone with very good taste and an appreciation of glass history art purchasing this beauty.

I won't be at this Saturday's market (you probably can guess why), but I'll be back on Saturday, the 25th.

This isn't in my online shops, as it was really just a color combination experiment. I'll offer it at my next market. A base of opaque lightly marbled cream, overlaid with raked bands of deep dark red, straw yellow, and very light green. #glass #hotglass #lampworking #flameworking #glassart #glassartist #lascruces #newmexico #handmade #art #MastoArt

Something new in both my Etsy shop and Ko-fi shop. I used earth tones on these opaque beads, rolling them on a corrugated metal surface while they were red hot, creating the spiral surface texture. The focal bead is the only transparent bead, made from emerald green glass. #glass #hotglass #lampwork #flamework #torchwork #handmadebeads #glassbeads #artisanglass #glassart #glassartist #studioglass #necklace #handmade #lascruces #lascrucesnm #newmexico #newmexicoartist #artyoucanwear #MastoArt

Something new in my Ko-fi shop. I've used two different decorative techniques while making these beads, one dating to the 17th Century AD, the other dating to the 13th Century BC. They seem to go well together.

After a struggle with my new tent, I had a nice time (despite the heat) at my first Las Cruces Farmers & Crafters Market this past Saturday. I've included pics of a couple of personal favorite pieces that I sold to people who really appreciated handmade artisan glass. I'll be at this Market again Saturday, August 30. #handmade #glass #lampwork #artglass #glassartist #studioglass #LasCruces #NewMexico #HotGlass #ArtYouCanWear #PastPresentArts #ChristofMaupin #NewMexicoArt #MastoArt

Here's another new piece of handmade lampwork glass, fresh from my studio. Though I normally plan all my pieces carefully, this one was the product of instinct; i.e., I just picked some colors, sat at the torch and got started. It's in my Ko-fi shop here: ko-fi.com/s/5ad44c83e8 #handmade #MastoArt #lampwork #glass #beads #HotGlass #jewelry #necklace #studioglass #GlassArt #GlassArtist #ArtYouCanWear #lascruces #NewMexico

I've added this new piece to my Ko-fi and Etsy shops (link in profile). I used a bright white opaque glass to make the beads before rolling them while red hot in a mix of colored frit, including black, red, purple, blue, yellow, green, and beige. 19.5 inches long, toggle closure. #handmade #MastoArt #glassart #glassartist #lampwork #glassbeads #hotglass #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #artyoucanwear #studioglass #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #lascruces #newmexico Link: ko-fi.com/s/9c63924d10

It's such a relief (and a pleasure!) to be back on the torch again, after an absence of several weeks, while I moved cross country, waited for my glass, tools and equipment to arrive, and organized a new, if temporary, studio space. It seemed fitting to play with some New Mexico colors! #handmade #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #glass #HotGlass #glassart #glassartist #lampwork #torchwork #flamework #artyoucanwear #lampworkjewelry #studioart #studioglass #lascruces #lascrucesnm #newmexicoartist
