This was the first piece Mark Mccourt and I made in our recent 3 day collaboration session. We weren't planning on working the first day, but we couldn't resist some good old late night glassbowing action. So we headed out to the shop and decided to make a goblet. We put this piece together very smoothly, it went very fast. I really like how our styles came together, the cup and foot are made by Mark, and I made the Seaform stem. It is a nice combination of abstract sculpture and fine venetian lampwork. True height is 11 in. I look foreward to many more collaborations with Mark in the future...

Cuatro Kruse began his lampworking adventure in the spring of 2002, dropping out of high school at the age of 17 to pursue a career in glass. Since then he has dedicated himself to perfecting his lampworking skills, practicing full time in his remodeled studio in Durango, Colorado, his home town for 21 years. In 2004-2005, he studied with renowned glass artists Jason Lee, Robert Mikelsen, and Bob Snodgrass. These artists have given him the skills and direction he needed to become the glass artist he is today, and their influences can definitely be seen in his work. Cuatro’s glass art can be seen in various galleries and shops throughout Colorado, and he is currently working on expanding throughout the U.S. His work can be viewed online at: http://www.glassartists...atro_Kruses_Gallery.asp
