Glass works

Working in glass has many parallels with ceramics. Yet the material responds in different and surprising ways. One moment fragile and delicate, and the next bold and strong, this luminous and generous material offers up the results that clay sometimes denies. It is at once an unexpected and natural extension to my ceramic practice.
