I was drawn to stained glass because of its rich colors and textures and its ability to make light dance. It can be your friend, giving you the opportunity to create beautiful works of art; or your enemy - not performing to your expectations, and sometimes wounding in the process (I keep the workshop well-stocked in bandages). Glass gives me the ability to create in 2 dimension or 3. It can be cut, shaped, fused, molded, and sculpted in a flame. It's solid, yet flows, even at ambient temperatures given enough time. Some of my inspiration comes from my background in math and science, which can be seen in Penrose patterns, fractals, and space objects. But mostly, I just like to play and try new things...some things work and some things don't...if they don't, I try to figure out why.
