Artist's
Statement
“There is something both dramatic and dynamic about the manipulation of
a molten mass of glass, such that the process has almost as much
appeal to me as does the creation. Hot glass is a medium in constant
motion, where balance, timing and rhythm are the essential tools
in the process. Once you start, you cannot stop until it is finished
and, after almost twenty years in glass, I’ve conceded that
the glass is really in control, as much as I would like to believe
otherwise.”
