New Geode Bowl

This is my latest Geode bowl it is roughly 6" in height and 9" in diameter. The glass is spring green and black, these have become two of my favorite colors working with the Geode Bowls and the geometric designs.

The latest in the" Little Women" series, titled the" Women of Fukushima" after the horrific earthquake. The piece is 16" in diameter and approximately 6" total in height with the women being 2" tall.

Portland Open Studios

The weekend of October 15th and 16th I will be participating in Portland Open Studios. There will be 100 artists in the Portland area showing and demonstrating the work in their studio. My studio is in the Aquila Glass School at 1628 N Columbia Blvd. and I will be in the studio between 10:AM and 5:PM both days. All of the glass shown in the photo is my work.

Little Women II: What Planet Are You From

Here is the second of the Little Women series: What Planet Are You From

There are 16 women total, three or four are inside of the bowl and not shown in this view. The piece measures 22" diameter and is 6.5" high, the little women are 2" tall.

This piece was commissioned by a collector who saw the original Little Women on display in a glass show. Like the original Little Women this is a collaborative work with a fellow teacher and studio partner Leah Pellegrini. I make the "Saturn" bowl and Leah made the women.

Little Women

I have been working with a friend and studio partner Leah Pellegrini on this piece. Leah made the "Little Women", I fused and slumped the black "Saturn" bowl. I have had the idea for this for over a year but had to make the mold for slumping it and working out the bugs to get the final shape. the piece is 22" in diameter and 6" high. The "Little Women" are 2" tall.

Saturn Bowl

One of my latest pieces; Saturn Bowl. It is 22" in diameter and about 10" high. It started as an experiment to see if I could "drop" a bowl through a + 22" circle, it worked ! After it was completed I thought it look great with a top or cover on it so I slumped a bowl, made a marble and attached it to the under side of the bowl and made a lid for the lower bowl. For an experiment I think it turned out pretty cool.

Plate and Bowl

My latest large plate and bowl, the plate is 1" high X 22" X 22". The bowl is 6" high and 9" diameter. they are both in Black with Spring Green.
