My introduction to glassblowing began with a simple, well thought out approach. I started with an electrical engineering degree, switched to liberal arts, dropped out and became a carpenter’s apprentice.
His crew poured the floor of a glass shop. I got laid off and started sweeping the aforementioned floor.I later got the opportunity to by into the shop and the rest as they say is history.
A simple, well planned career path… ummm right…
I’ve since been in Worcester, Mass. And have been supporting myself (and lovely wife and daughter too!) with my creations. My muse has always been the ocean being a water sign, but on occasion the insect world calls as well. You could say I go back and forth between “Finding Nemo” and “A Bug’s Life” for inspiration.
All of my pieces are hand formed/ blown and available in a variety colors. Most of my work is meant to hang in windows as that was where I spent most of my career path staring until I found glass.
