Prototypes

Here is a sneak peek at some early prototypes for a secret project that I am working on:

GAAC Conference in Montreal

Hello All,

Last month I attended the wonderful GAAC Conference in beautiful Montréal, Québec. It was an amazing conference and I had the pleasure of sharing a presentation about my work and my experiences with glass as part of the recent graduate's panel along with Karine Demers, Laura Sasseville, Steven Tippin, Brad Turner, and Rachael Wong.

Here are some photos I took of an exceptional goblet making demonstration by Patrick Primeau taken at the Espace Verre hotshop:

And here is a photo of Anthony Schafermeyer at work during his demonstration of the murrine and incalmo techniques:

And one final photo of Laura Donefer being interviewed by a television crew during her Glass Fashion Show at the Montréal Science Centre:

I really enjoyed my stay in Montréal but most of all I enjoyed meeting new friends and spending time with some old ones! All of the demos and lectures that I attended were outstanding and I am very thankful to all of the GAAC members, the people at Espace Verre and all others who organized, participated in, helped out at, attended, and hosted this very successful conference! I must also thank my friends Lauren and Drew for being such gracious hosts that weekend.

Thank You!

New Vases

Hi, sorry for neglecting this blog for so long. I would hate to think that it takes an earthquake and thousands of police, protesters, and numerous world leaders to get me to update my blog, but apparently that is the case. Those of you reading this in Toronto will know what I'm talking about.

Anyway here are a couple photos of some new work, I hope you enjoy them!

I will post again soon to talk about my adventures at this year's GAAC Conference in Montreal.

Later!
