I WANT IT!

OMG that's amazing!! What a gorgeous bead!! I think I saw this posted over at WC too, but hadn't clicked on it yet. It's perfection!

Nice seeing you down here, Starlia.

OH MY GOSH!

Wendy is the goddess of animal sculptures - that's for sure!

Thanks. I've been here, but lurking mostly.

Help an old woman off the floor? Tanks! Why are you lurking mostly?

I'm gonna be the lone dissenting voice here, but as much as I enjoy Wendy's work, the peacock just doesn't do it for me. I can really appreciate the time/work/energy that went into it, but it's just not my thing.

I'm bothered by the brown edge and back side. Too much like a turkey. And yes, I too admire her work.

Actually, you don't have to be alone. As you all know, I am terribly afraid of birds and the idea of actually wearing one squicks me out. I am impressed with the talent and the incredible amount of work, but I wouldn't ever want the bead.

The Corgi bead, OTOH - well, that would be another matter. What a pity I haven't seen a Cairn Terrier bead. I'd be willing to pay some big money for a bead that looked like Sophie. :-)

Ob. Random Thought: It's the middle of the night, and I'm up watching COPS. They're trying to talk out some guy who has barricaded himself in his home. I wonder - how did they know he was barricaded? I'm in the house all the time, and it would take a year before anyone knew that I was barricaded inside. (Maybe the Diet Coke people would report the sharp drop in sales) Even if I waved a gun out the window, our neighbors are so elderly that they'd never see it. Sigh. Another career plan down the tubes.

All you have to do is ask -- I've seen them either by Wendy - or the other gal that does dogs (whose name escapes me right now)

Thats what I thought too... too klunky to be a peacock. Id love to see a less literal interpetation of a peacock in glass... Diana

Mavis does awesome dogs, too. I have one of her poodles and a Jack Russell terrier.

Carol in SLC New auctions:

Isn't COPS great? Watching it makes me feel like my life is so simple and wonderful. My husband hates that show. I like it and have to laugh at how incredibly stupid some people are. I know - it's sad and pathetic.

So true. A mime is a terrible thing to waste.
