My newest efforts are in this Aligator, there is a drawing of him I made in December of 1999 in the Black Cat archives .

The cabin retreat of wet canvas glass artists was wonderful. To see a few pictures go here

Couldn't ask for a better start to a new week.

I'm off to Big Rapids MI to a cabin retreat for glass bead makers. That should be refreshing.

I had a most wonderful time in Tyrell County at http://www.lasseterslanding.com/ last weekend.

Two night stay at Lassiter landing was A christmas present from Willie and Feather. Willie's soft shell crabs are the best I've ever eaten as was his angus beef. His Full Circle Crab company is doing very well. Feather gave me some of her home spun angora fleece. (the pictures from the front page of FireKissedGlass.com are from their farm. )

My brother, Richard Hart, continues his amazing writings over at

Deadbeatpayingjob.com . Once again I'm looking forward to another great adventure. This time I'm going to a Bead Makers Cabin Retreat up in Big Rapids Michigan. It should be a good time to learn new techniques and meet some of the wonderful people I've learned from on line at Wet Canvas (a web site for artists).
