 For us as artists to work with a material with such versatility in textures; light patterns; in shapes and lines, even the decorative techniques is truly gratifying. The gifts of glass seem endless, and when approached the material is forever munificent no matter how multifaceted the challenge may be. Our work is moving in a new direction relating to animals and their habitats. We are discovering beauty in their environments and finding how to give life and warmth to a cold hard substance. |

The Snag Series represents old dead trees that have become a safe haven, a home or a meal for the creatures of our land. What we are trying to do is show that spirit glowing through the rough exterior and showing the beauty within itself. The Trailways Vases and Island Weights are also exploring the environments the animals are an internal part of.
