"Please check out my hand blown glass pieces and contact me for custom work as well."
Using hand blown hot glass, I create my uniquely textured, whimsical and vibrant glass designs. After over forty years of working with glass, I still look forward to every day in front of the blazing hot furnace. Glass fascinates me; there is no end to what new techniques, new discoveries, and new sources of inspiration I find every time I pick up a blowpipe. My work in glass draws on my...
... earlier experimentation with different media. I started out as a ceramicist, and I often handle the glass as though I am still working with clay, using folded, wet newspaper. My dimensional approach to working with glass has shaped my distinctive style, and continues to inspire new creations.
