| GOT AN URGE Cyndi Beebee and Linda Milbrandt IN THE BEGINNING... Click on photos for larger view The phrase Got An Urge started about 40 years ago when my sisters and I would call each other on the phone and just say… “got an urge?” This comment meant we needed to take a break and literally figure out a way within hours to go to Vegas. Which meant we had to find baby sitters for the kids and either drive or fly to Vegas….which we accomplished many, many times. Also, 32 years ago Linda and I met each other and we would include Linda in the our Vegas trips. Then Linda and I would also use “got an urge” which meant “let’s go to the movies”. Got an urge turned into a phrase that family and friends started using for many adventures. We sold candies and cookies until 2004 and I got too busy with my regular job to keep baking. Linda and I wanted to do something fun together and decided to start a clothing line in late 2007……and here we are! We are having so much fun working together! Our New Snu-zeees |

Janice Osborne is a Glass Artist living in Hermosa Beach, California. She started her career in Glass in the late 70’s doing Stained glass, windows, doors, lamps chandeliers and even room dividers. About eight years ago she decided to broaden her glass knowledge using the kiln to fuse and manipulate glass. Each piece is hand crafted and takes several days to make with multiple firings. Today she is enjoying making her jewelry from glass she designs herself and her standing glass cats, dogs, horses, wind chimes and plates are all made to put a smile on your face.

| GARDEN ART BY VICKY TRENKLE (760) 837-3646 vnctrenkle@earthlink.net Without technical training, I began making stepping stones as gifts for family and friends. My family suggested I sell my art so I decided to do so. I use recycled material such as pottery, jewelry, and beads, typically purchased at garage sales and thrift stores, to embed in the concrete stepping stones. The stone art is colorful and comes in different sizes and shapes. The stepping stones are decorative and can be walked on. It is bling for the garden or home. I also attach the recycled material to small metal sculptures and picture frames to add color and character to these pieces. Since each piece is unique, no two pieces of art are alike. All of the art may be used both outdoors and indoors. |
| DEBRA BARSY Pacific Winds P.O. Box 446 Yucca Valley, California 92286 760-365-1380 pacificwinds@verizon.net Fused glass artist, Debra Barsy, creates her striking Pacific Winds™ wind chimes and light catchers using shapes, textures and colors in glass. She has been designing and making her original creations since early 1993 when she developed the idea of decorative glass wind chimes. Her many original designs range from her popular “Dichroic Diamonds,” to “Desert Sunrise,” “Full Sun” and “Elegant Flower” to “Tropical Fish,” some using reflective Dichroic glass for a distinctive look. Debra’s eye for design is accented by her color combinations that compliment today’s styles of decor. At any given time, at least 40 designs populate her display racks, with many new styles and one-of-a-kind chimes appearing often. Debra creates her work by firing glass in a kiln to melt colors together and give the glass its smooth texture. The glass is then cooled slowly, annealing it to add strength. Because of this process, her chimes will easily withstand strong winds. The results are chimes with a subtle, relaxing sound and a strong visual appeal. Debra’s work has been accepted into many well known shows including the Southwest Arts Festival, The Indian Wells Arts Festival, Thousand Oaks Artwalk, Tempe Festival of the Arts and many other quality events. She was awarded a Creativity Award by Pacific Fine Arts at the California Strawberry Festival, Honorable Mention at the Studio City Festival of the Arts, and she received a third place ribbon at the 2008 Indian Wells Arts Festival. Her work is very popular at major art shows throughout California, and is sold in over fifty galleries and shops all over the country. Debra began her career in glass art work apprenticing with Tom Glose in Allentown, Pennsylvania, a stained glass artist known for his 40 foot rendition of corporate trademark, “Nipper” in RCA’s original headquarters. This experience inspired her to further her knowledge of glass technique and to develop her design and fabrication talents. In 1985, she became involved with glass fusing, learning the skill from fusing expert, Gil Reynolds, of Portland Oregon. She perfected her work over the years, creating bowls, vases, and a line of art deco accent lamps before introducing Pacific Winds™ wind chimes 17 years ago. Glass is her passion, and her enthusiasm for her work shows in each piece she creates. |
