i've been working w/ glass since 2006. pretty much self taught. started on a hot head and i just got a GTT Lynx torch and am going to start exploring borosillicate glass. any tips, thoughts, and comments are always welcome!

thought i should elaborate and share my glass adventure!:
i have always loved glass. just never knew it was possible for me to play w/ such a medium until last year. i caught up w/ a good friend and she was making beads! i was astonished that she knew of this art and asked her to help me get started. between her and a local glass shop owner, i have become addicted to making glass creations. i was on a hot head for about a year. i just received my lynx. (thanks to a reccommendation from jupiter- he has no idea who i am i just wrote an email haha. but i feel the need to thank him and promote him as i tell my story b/c it's b/c of him i have a lynx!!!) and WOW is it amazing. really. the possibilities just swung open for me. i'm very excited and open like a sponge to suck in anything and everything i can! i hope to broaden my abilities. make some money w/ some beads and get set up for official classes to learn new techniques. i love to incorporate metal into my glassworks. and am learning as best i can how to do that. everything is a process. eventually, my dream goal is to get myself in a hot shop as a gaffer. big dream, i know! but one day. until then, i am going to become more proficient w/ the glass, learn even more how it flows and likes to be worked. then i am going to take it further and see what possibilities there are for me to get into a local shop. i'm just enjoying the ride w/ this beautiful medium. contact me if you need something made, or would like to buy a creation of mine! grazie!!!
