Glass is my favorite medium. My favorite subjects vary as I like to make items that will pull feelings out of the viewer. Whether those feelings are of joy, sadness, happiness, inspiring, as well as thought provoking. I love making items that are good conversation starters. Most of what I make are wearable works of art.
Where do you find inspiration?A lot of my inspiration comes though music and lyrics of all genres, as well as the up's and down's that I've been through in life. I have been through many different highs and lows in life, and Art has saved me and continues to help me... Glass, Paintings, Electroforming, and other art forms have helped me climb out of the the darkness and see life in a new light. Much of my work nowadays have been towards Space, Meditation, Plant Medicine, Love and Light Art.
What would you do with $25,000?Lots of Tools, Glass, Video equipment for "How-to" videos. Possibly a mobile studio... And some Dog Toys for the doggies.
