There was a time when I thought surely I would make nothing of myself or this form of art, but my desire to benefit others through art kept me going. The early pieces I did surprisingly sold and quickly at that. (Though as I look back now I can't help but laugh and wonder why.) This gave me hope and a will to persevere. With each new piece an understanding came, along with a feel for the glass until one day I recognized it was no longer a struggle to form the shape rather an intuition. I began to trust myself more and more, and that is where the pleasure of the art was revealed. Now, I can see a frame or window and just know what was meant to be in it. Sometimes I have ideas of what I want to do, but when I find that perfect, empty window it speaks to me and says,"I was made for that idea" and then I simply work to bring it out of the window or frame.
