I discovered a new artist after a visit to our Renaissance Festival - Debby Harkness

Debby Harkness, of Southern Exposure in Austin Texas, came in to my store this week and intrigued me with her story. She is in town for the duration of one of the top Renaissance Festivals in the country. She creates lampwork glass designs and is a silversmith. She graciously offered me a pair of tickets to come visit her booth.
The Renaissance Festival is going on in Larkspur, Colorado and it is a huge, well visited event. I had a wonderful day and enjoyed many artist’s demonstrations. I picked this gorgeous lampwork glass bead made by Debby of Southern Exposure and hope to get my hands on more as she makes them. Offered on a simple rubber cord, I am going to try to come up with my own design with beads that will compliment the blue glass pendant. It will be a truly unique necklace and should be made available for sale in the very near future!
