Liberty was my first school craft show. It was great seeing so many of my customers and friends. I enjoy hearing how they love my work and how they display my work. It really lifts my spirits and reminds me why I continue to create my glass. […]
Last month I wrote a couple of blogs about fused glass Halloween and Christmas artwork. I also made some night lights. These are a bit different, they can be interchangeable. The nightlight has a hook and can hold a fused glass art piece. Here are the 4 I made. I […]

I know I’ve blogged about this before but, one of the the aspects of fused glass that I love is if you don’t like it you can refuse it. When I took the glass class with Amanda in New York I mentioned that I broke one of my fused glass […]
In order to do well in the art community you have to get into shows. The best shows are typically juried. To get into those shows you have to have great photographs. The jury looks at the pictures to decide what handmade items are the best and allowed into the […]
