Description

Glass is a material of inherent beauty and possibility.  Its fluid grace makes it an exhilarating and inspirational challenge to form. Like water, glass flows and freezes according to temperature. When cold it can be carved and polished; when hot it flows and stretches in response to its environment.

As I blow glass, it reacts to my touch, my breath, my speed, just as I react to it. It is truly a reflective material – a reflector of light, concept,artist. It is also a voice, a vehicle of expression.

I am lucky to have glass as my voice, to be able to speak for it, through it, and to have it speak for me.
