Artist statement:
Glass is to many, and certainly to us, an exciting medium. Over 20 years ago it captured our attention as a mysterious material with endless possibilities. Our attraction is of the fascination of being able to cut deep relief carvings and to break free-form edges in a wonderful mix of textures, shapes, and forms. Our hope is to share our excitement of wanting to visually see the shapes and sculpting, and even to physically touch and sense the layers of carving, sandblasting and textures, and fluid, watery edges. We also incorporate brass, steel, screen and stone for a mixed media approach to our glass art. Our new pieces are more abstract this year.
