Outside The Box


Placer Arts, our local arts organization, is holding their annual Outside The Box fundraiser. 100 artists are given boxes to turn into "art" with an auction at the end of the show. We are participating this year for the first time and it has been lots of fun!

SEARCHING FOR BALANCE - The main theme in my life! I was determined to work with "found" materials in our shop but couldn't resist blowing glass "into the box" and incorporating the result "out of the box"!

Artwalk April 8, 6 to 9 at the Arts Building - auction May 22, 7pm

Portland!




The schedule is really heating up! We have orders to keep us going and Spring is here! I spent an incredible 3 days in Portland at Bullseye for a glass workshop. Now my main job is to elbow out space and time in my life to make creative things happen - and I will. I am determined. I have so many photos, but will give you a peek into the factory. Fascinating to watch the hot sheets of glass roll out. Truly a glassworkers candy store.
