Glass Artist TV Shows

Post by Sharon David »

Hi
My name is Sharon David and yes I’m addicted to glass. :shock: My addiction has been fueled very nicely, THANKS Brad for making this possible.
Due to this deep interest I Tape Glass Artist Programs that are aired on HGTV (Home and Garden TV)
I’d like to contribute to this list by posting up coming Glass Shows.
Here is what I have found for March and April.

Modern Masters Glass Artist Listing

03-23-03 1:30pm est. (MAS-408) Leslie Rankin puts a little of Las Vegas' sparkle into her work, as she sandblasts and paints a glass room divider.

03-29-03 1:30pm est. (MAS-409) Rafael Aboy is shown in his Miami studio sandblasting a leaf design into the legs of a glass table.

04-12-03 1:30pm est. (MAS-411) New Orleans glass artist Mitchell Gaudet creates a blown-glass vase and embellishes it with cast-glass objects that signify lost love.

04-26-03 1:30 pm est. (MAS-413) Detroit glass artist Maxwell Davis creates a glass table with legs that look like icicles.

Thanks for the info. I love watching shows of this nature. I am sure if you went through the gallery here on the main page you would get lots of inspiration for future shows with warm glass artists!

Thanks Sharon,

I haven't seen the show as much since they changed times but the one's I have seen lately have been repeats. These sound like new shows and I will make an effort to watch them.
