Profile Information

Something Interesting About Me:: Live and Love in the Valley on the banks of the Shenandoah River VA USA.

Where I Live:: Virginia, USA

My First Lava Lamp was:: I fell in love with lava at a friend's house in 1967, I was 15. My friend had just gotten a lamp for her birthday. It was a sleepover. I stayed up all night watching the lamp.

Now I have a bunch and want more. The plan is to house the midnights in black bookcases for A Moving Wall of Color.

I'm setting the lamps up then heating them until they spike and turning them off. I can easily move the globes without causing cloudiness and have an easy to see palette of colors to consider when positioning the lamps… Continue
