Hello Glass Fans!

I apologize for my hiatus as I was packing up my studio and moving out to Seattle, Washington!
The transition has been a huge endeavor involving many boxes of glass & loads of bubble wrap, but I have found myself in one of the best glass communities in the world!
I am now working with fabulous glassmaking teams to help me execute my large pieces.  The timing and coordination needed to make hot glass is an artmaking dance with molten fire.

I am also a new faculty member of Pratt Fine Arts and LOVING it!  I am thrilled to be part of the family at Pratt.
We have an upcoming auction and party celebrating 30 years of artmaking @ Pratt.  
Click here for more info and attend the event on May 5.

I am equipped with not only the best shops and teams, but packers and shippers that can bring art glass to any corner of the world.
All glassworks and art glass lighting is signed and dated by the artist– moi! It is part of the ILLUMINATA collection.

Get in touch to chat about custom art glass!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
The nature of our surrounding environment is a balance of duality. Good and bad, yummy and yucky, hard and soft, chocolate and everything else, and of course, dark and light.

Contrast and unexpected effect are elemental in my design process.   My glassworks reflect these natural tensions in our universe.  I enjoy the contradictory effect of combining raw industrial material with the smooth elegance of blown glass.   Or perhaps interrupting the surface of glass with sandblasting or metallic coatings.

Creating effect in a space is the goal of great lighting.   Helping us feel at one with our world is the goal of making great art. Read more…
