"He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands, his head, and his heart is an artist."
~ St. Francis of Assisi
Artist Statement
My work is the physical manifestation of my intrigue..my captivation..my obsession with color. I see my glassmaking process as being much more rigid, orderly, patient and well-defined Ultimately, I aspire to create art that stirs viewers to a deeply emotional response, even if it's only subconscious – a fitting acknowledgment to work that I hope is considered beautiful by everyone while at the same time being significant to the individual.
