"Along the way to close my eyes
Haven't had alotta time to work on cups lately but here are a few recent entries...
About 12" tall
spewing circular suckers center on searing sand, secular sinners sing savagely. singularly stupid in thier selfish sauntering they stumble unsteadily into a scorching scuffle. "Signs!" say seven of them when sought... "Silly" says sally. "I have seashells by the seashore to sell."
Blown, sandblasted, and oil stained glass * Featured Page *
18" tall 2006
This pitcher is divided and twisted internally(think stuffed with a corkscrew) so that it mixes while it pours! * Featured Page *
finally finished the hanging box for this, will eventually have recessed lighting permenently installed inside but didn't photo well with it. Flameworked, sandblasted and oil stained glass, hammered and riveted steel * Featured Page *
furnace and flame work, about 12" tall. Based around the characters Miranda and Prospero from Shakespear's "The Tempest"
An experiment in torch assembling lamped and furnace elements. The idea was to do something that can only be done at the furnace (Reticello) and something which can only be done at the lamp (the bust) in the same piece. * Featured Page *
cups
Flameworked Boro, 18" tall or so... named for a Chinese term for the October (my birth month) moon. * Featured Page *
about 7" tall, furnace blown and oil stained * Featured Page *
just for fun!
Blown and carbon cast glass.
This group of goblets represent the last four months of intensive goblet study. The tallest stands about 13" or so and they are all furnace worked.
just thought these looked nice together, one is furnace, one is flameworked, one is both. See if you can guess!
made a few of these last year, thought the reticello came out nice on this one
Blown, 10" tall
Blown, flameworked, and sanbblasted. * Featured Page *

incalmo/lampworked underlay colab with mass art professor Chris Watts.
A.K.A "the Rat Rider"
brought a camera to work and made unsuspecting people (thanks Buck!!) take pictures as I taught a Museum of Fine arts Boston teen camp in the flame shop and then worked with Chris Watts on a champagne glass set at the furnace at Diablo glass and metal in Boston. The Teen camp is a program through the MFA boston that has afforded me the oppurtunity to teach flame and furnace work to a whole lot of great kids, mostly 12-18 for the last two years. Always amazing how fast the kids learn and how much I learn in teaching them....Thanks for lookin!
posting some older stuff from the vault...given to my tattoo artist and used as a model for part of my own tattoo.
