Hooked on Uroborus glass.

I'm still waiting for the right shade of orange to come along for the koi in my panel.  Gee whiz!  How many different shades of orange ARE there?  Obviously my eye hasn't seen one I like yet, and my glass bins runneth over with every shade but the right one.

In the meantime, the lily pads are working out well, and even though I plan on painting and firing the eyes, scales, and fin spines whenever the right shade of orange happens to get to my front door, I've indicated the eyes with green glass globs which make the fish look drugged out...koi on crack. They are dead-in-the-pan-looking fish right now. Maybe it's the expression on their faces. I have yet to meet a fish with a sense of humor. The snail is a fossil (like me!) but I love her anyway.

The bottom of the pond is pumpkin/green Uroborus (I love this stuff) and the top of the geode slice is where a line of lead begins. This will run "behind" the fish up to one of the lily pads. There will be other stem-like lead lines running vertically in the panel as well. The water glass came for the top of the panel, but my day job keeps me from getting home in time to cut glass.
