In the Studio

We are making glass today. Brandon is in at 10 and then Andy will be working around 1. We have a lesson at 3 to 5. Sunday Sparky will fire up about 11 and then a lesson at 1 with the Booth's in at 2. Should be a great weekend.

Interesting series of articles in the Hot Glass Quarterly . Glass blowing as a private artistic matter and glassblowing as a public display. Interesting stuff. I love to watch it being created, it is great to show off for an audience, and I love to figure stuff out when no body is watching. How do you feel?

Have a lovely weekend. Head up to the Stillwater Arts Festival if you have some spare time. and remember to Keep it Centered!
