Launchpad Design's Gallery

|
The Launchpad originated as a place of creative exploration and inspiration, and today has developed into Launchpad Design, specializing in stellar and interstellar wire-wrapped jewlery, hand-blown glass, graphic design and beyond.
I picked up wire wrapping after having been inspired by friends and since then have loved seeing my visions come to fruition through this unique artform. The vibrant colors and unusual forms created by the gems and minerals set a palatte and flow impossible not to follow. Combining my art with the timeless work of mother nature provides endless possibilities I have just begun to explore. Please enjoy my gallery and feel free to leave me comments.
E-mail me at LP-Design@hotmail.com and visit my glassblowing gallery at glasspipes.org, my graphic design gallery at computergraphicsartists.org and my myspace page at myspace.com/LaunchpadDesign (be my friend?)!
Much Love,
Dylan, Launchpad Design
