very nice work! here in israel it opened immediately.
I enjoyed mostly the more imaginary like neptune, and the detail of the retro quilt - a very good piece in itself, reminds of Hans Hoffman .
I also like the framimg.
good luck

With your permission, I wanted to add few words to your very exciting project. a. I guess one could just take one of his/her pieces considered typical, and just do this piece upside down.......It might be easier for some people. b. I think that this is a very interesting project and should be sort o...

altough you do not know me, I allow myself to enter this conversation/challenge. a. I'd like to say that the red pieces are very beautiful in my humble oppinion.- as a "color addict" I paradoxically enjoy sometimes playing with different tones/hues of the same color, including various text...

warm glass weekend

1. It might be difficult to get from Corning to Elmira, especially if there are many people leaving at the same time - I was there, and could'nt get a taxi to the airport, about 20 minutes before my flight took off (after a class at the Studio). The Hotel manager drove me in his own car... Perhaps i...

Dick,
I join in congratulating you, still hoping that it might take longer to get all the way to Israel........
However I do not recall having been asked to send slides. I just sent a fax. Now I realise that my chances are even smaller

:shock: :( I also want to express my disappointment if I do not get into Moje's class in Pilchuck. I enrolled last year at Northlands school of glass in Scotlad to study with him, but he was after a car accident and was not allowed by the doctors to get out of Aussi. They offered the class with Jess...

I just caught a professor who photographed a poster I added to my glass exhibition - it was a poem I wrote about how glass makes me feel.... He really photographed the poem/poster WITHOUT MY S...
