Boxfan Jr and Sr I was demoing at a friends gallery, Vetro Art Glass,in Grapevine, TX. The owner, David Gappa, asked my five year old if he wanted to blow a bubble. Trey said "Let's do this man!!!" No lie, he never hesitated. He listened and moved around me while I gathered and marvered, etc. The pictures say the rest. The crowd was 75-100 folks and he rocked. They went wild for him. I am a proud papa. I will have to talk to him about proper footware(and I gave up my shades to a collector for the demo).
Thanks for checking this out! Glass is good!!!

Glass found Menzies in 1998, after a brief stint searching for his future mentor, Bob Snodgrass in Eugene, OR. The next eighteen months were spent moving between Eugene and Seattle, honing technique while working as a production flameworker, before moving back to Texas.
Menzies found expression and fascination in the art of the marble. The optical & magnification qualities of borosilicate glass demands great attention to detail.
Wil teaches flameworking workshops around the world as well as his studio in rural East Texas.He and his wife also publish The Flow, a journal dedicated to the art and craft of flameworking.
