Lampworked Glass, Jewelry
“M
y art form is lampworked glass. This is glass manipulated in a flame, all details being applied to molten glass, using dental-like tools. I have been working with glass for over 25 years. Like many, I started out in stained glass, then progressed to the hot glass processes. To me glass is a magical substance. It can be hard and sharp one minute, then taffy-like the next. Manipulating hot glass is indescribable.”
