Look Steph, nearly 5 years ago.....just starting to learn.....

Freese? As in pre-freese? I have always wondered and have never asked about this term I have seen.

Hello back, and thanks!

Hello, and thank you!

Thank you everyone for your help and interesting tid-bits of info.

Hello, I had a little marble spillage accident.......these 2 are left. Anyone know what run they are from so I can get them back to their proper little slot in a tray?

My photos are so much clearer on my iPhone, I don't get why they become so blurry when I save them to my documents and upload them from there. Bugs.

Wondering what these 5 are. All have seams except the one at 9 o'clock.

polka-dotty...... next is carnelian and green.

thanks, hug back....can't wait to dig in.

Hi. I have been absent from Marble Connection for well over a year but am glad to be back, to learn more from so many knowledgeable folks.....and Steph rocks!! Here is a photo of my favorites I have displayed.

"I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy." Tom Waits for sure, there could be others.

I was just drawn to the dirt/marble plug photo like a magnet! How does one know where to go? How much does it cost? Website with info if you have one would be great.

Here she is at a show in Bloomington, Indiana this summer with her lovely work.

Here is another marble painting she did. Please see attachment.

I will share that with her SirCray. She is so talented.

Hello, My friend, Ellen Starr Lyon, is a mother of 2 , a wife, a full-time working stiff at the IU Art Museum, and an artist. The attached painting she just did for me as a gift. If you are interested in having a beautiful, custom painted image of your marbles, you may contact her via her website. http://m.facebook.com/ellenstarrlyonfromthestudio?__mref=message_bubble She also has a Wordpress website you can find by her name. Her artwork is amazing. She prefers to paint subjects when light can pass thru them, but would probably consider any and all marbles. Thanks for taking the time, -Sara

Sharing 'Nitty Gritty', thanks for posting it!

Love the item Alleynut. Don't you think Illhavethat's profile picture looks like the same glass? Also, form? Are there seams? I'm assuming all forms have seams, but that might not be true.

This is a really helpful group alkare. Your lot of marbles reminds me of mine.

good subject for a photo op bob (kbobham)!

So beautiful everyone! Sissydear, I see seams, don't I? I'm talking about the top 5 or 6 pictures. Love those! It's strange, I don't think I have any pink in my collection. I'm going to look after work.

Wish I'd seen this on Sat. Snooze you lose, right? Do another! Do another!

Like! Nice work.
