All-
Sorry in advance, as I continue to hide in our New Orleans Brottworks bunker with little to no time or money to play an active role in your wonderful kiln fired Worlds.
Maybe someday...
But my career has taken a path outside the normal gallery and collector route; I am a commercial glass Artist, retired from teaching, but still consulting.
As an "Artist" I embarrassed to not have done a "show" (solo) since I was at UWRF 20+ years ago (have one ready to make..), but have found this best pays for constant R+D, an active UL (Underwriters Laboratory)file, a hot shop, and some big a$$ kilns + equipment + all the other expensive stuff we play with.
So few if any of y'all get to see our new innovations unless you eat at a restaurant with our works, or have a collector friend who buys direct as we still have no gallery representation.
Maybe someday...
So I pop in now to share with folks I respect...
Some of our new cable slumping is here:

+ our continued works in glass printmaking or carved photography is here-
http://brottworks.com/portfolio/printmaking/
Sorry- don't have the time to explain how they are made.
Maybe someday...
+ all are just cheap tricks, piled on even cheaper tricks, with a twist of lime and dash of New Orleans...
Best from Freret (Street) and enjoy your Summer.
