Welcome To My Shop





Welcome To My Shop

After several weeks of putting it off, I have taken some time just to work on my blog.

I  have been a glass artist off and on for over 30 years. 
My first exposure to glass art came when my father commissioned a local artist to make our front door into a piece of custom glass art.  I was hooked!  Seeing the light as it came in through the new door and sidelights. Being outside on a crisp autumn evening and seeing the warm glow sparkle from inside the house.  Yep, hooked!
From then on, I have loved the art of glass.
Over the years I have taken and taught a lot of glass classes while I made a living as a photographer.  Many times I would create an image with the camera just because it would make a great glass panel.
Fast forward a bit: I am now at a point in my life when I am able to devote more of my time to the art of glass. I no longer photograph weddings or commercial work. I now teach photography and mostly photograph landscapes. 
The time pressure is off and I can relax a bit.
Therefore, I have a lot more time to work as a glass artist.  A sizable portion of the photo studio has now become a glass studio and the glasswork is beginning to flow from it.
I hope that you enjoy seeing the work and the blog.

Dear Reader

Many thanks for taking the time to comment, it is very important to artists to get positive feedback about work and posts.

Unfortunately, a lot of machines used the comments form for advertising and idiocy, so ALL comments are now moderated.

Thankfully, most of you are human and this is not an issue

Thanks as always,
Steve
