Kiln Formed Glass

Artist's Statement - "Thoughts about glass - Making something beautiful out of something flat - making something with shape, form and substance - something with a function as well as a visual joy - simple and complex at the same time - carved from ice - a timeless feeling - transparency - the glow of light emitting through the piece - it's about light, texture and the form.  My pieces are Kiln Formed, fired in the kiln multiple times (sometimes up to 50 hours).  It's about heat - how fast and how slow - it's about patience.  My recent works are an experiment with texture and transparency."
