I have a love affair with glass. It began when I first started collecting, and intensified when I began making glass art. When I’m working on a piece, I’m in a world alone with it and I can spend hours playing with different techniques, colors and textures before deciding on the final look. Once done, it becomes an affair between me and the kiln. So much of the final piece depends on what happens in the kiln. Every time I open the lid there is a surprise waiting for me. The latest piece is usually my favorite - until I make the next one.”
