This week over at
Every Inchie Monday the theme is Xenon. I had never heard of Xenon before this week. But upon researching it I really love the look of Xenon. Check this out.
Xenon is a gas similar to neon. It also lights up for extremely short amounts of time. In a gas-filled tube, xenon emits a blue or
lavenderish glow when the gas is excited by electrical discharge. Xenon emits a band of emission lines that span the visual spectrum, but the most intense lines occur in the region of blue light, which produces the coloration.
So with that info I decided to do my inchie using 2 colors of Delicas. One being matte opaque black and the other color an opaque rainbow power blue. I was going for the glowing color thing. I do think I did a good job on that point.
Don't forget to fly on over to
EIM and check out the other great Xenon inchies.
Fantastic bead work as always and a lovely bright sample to choose to follow.
