I was born and raised in Colorado, I can’t think of any other state I would want to live in. The Rocky Mountains can’t be beat. Glass was 1st introduced to me fresh out of high school doing scientific glass blowing, but didn’t leave much of an impression. Then in 1981 glass was reintroduced to me on the art side of glass. This time it got a hold on me and has not let go. My observations of the things around me are my inspiration. Glass is mesmerizing in the flames, hours go by which feel only like minuets when you’re creating something new. What fun it is to take something solid, heat to a molten state and then shape to your delight. My ornaments are what I’m known best for.
