BACK TO ARTWORK Artist's Statement Frederick Warren: "Born in fire, colored by the sun, kissed by the moon, shaped by wind and water" These words echo in my mind as I work on this current series. Travels to the American Southwest and recurring dreams provide focus. No doubt, the rock gardens I built in my youth play themselves out again in my glass. I make my own color. Images are created and controlled during the blowing. After cooling, many forms are cut, ground and shaped before all are acid-etched. Jeff Van Hassel Began his apprenticeship with me in 1999. We now collaborate in very phase in the production of each piece: design, blowing, cutting, grinding, polishing and acid etching. This series requires two collaborating artists. I’m blessed to have my son-in-law working with me. Any success depends on all talented hands and impassioned hearts.
