In this blog (when I have some time), I will talk about my thoughts on art in general and glass art in specific.

If you have any comments on my post, please feel free to leave them. I will be excited to hear your opinion.

Let's start some cooperation in the glass art world!

Do you want to get your glass art noticed? If you do you’ll have to learn that the way people get their news today has greatly changed from just a few years ago. Did you know that 67% of people today get their news on the web?! You must get your message to them somehow, but how?

Last week, I had the good fortune to meet up with my long-time friend and hero, Harvey Littleton. He and his lovely wife for 61 years, Beth invited me to a wonderful barbeque place, close to his home and gallery in Fort. Pierce, Florida. His home, during the winter months, overlooks the river and on clear days you can see as far as 27 miles away, so you actually have a great view of the ocean.

Although glass is my hobby, and I love it, sometimes it (almost) turns into work. This was the case when I, together with my team of incredible glass artists, were finishing our latest exhibition that is now on display at the McKee Botanical Garden in Vero Beach, Florida. Good old, blood, sweat and tears, people!

Hi,
My name is Catherine and I am an engraver. I just wanted to let others know that if they have any questions about engraving, I would be very happy to help in any way.
Have a Wonderful Day!

I created the art process in 1978 which I refer as Crystal Imagery since the final product has a crystallized affect from the irregular shapes of the stained glass (approx. 1 mm in size).

The pain of working in glass. I had spent 2 months working on a picture only to have accidently broken it. That is so frustrating and disappointing as it truly was my best work. Think I need a little time to pout about it before I attempt another, lol.

Let me start my first real blog by answering a question I get all the time (No, not the question: “Do you ever burn yourself?”, even though I hear that question almost as often, only from people not familiar with working with 1,600 degree hot glass): "Why did you decide to become a glass artist?"

Where are all the buyers?
Sure I do my art because I love it, I couldn't live without mosaics.
I have work all over this town and out of town. I have work at juried events.
Galleries, Nurseries, Pond stores. Wide range.

People need to stop being afraid the world is ending soon, and buy some ART.
