Description

I was born and grew up in South-Eastern VT, have been blowing glass professionally for over 15 years, and have been in my own Studio, here in Bellows Falls, VT on 33 Bridge Street for 3 years. I specialize in hand-sculpted and blown glass, featuring "On-the-pipe" torchwork decoration that is best described as "Painting with Glass". I create unique & collectible Paperweights, Vases, Sculptural Animals and Fruit, Glass/Stem-ware and Seasonal Pieces, and More! I have an onsite Retail Gallery and can be found by accident or appointment at the Studio Mon-Sat 10am-3pm.

Background: RAMP was founded in 1995 to convey an important message: artists and the arts are essential to the revitalization and sustainability of rural communities. To this end, RAMP focuses on the importance of developing affordable live/work spaces, hosting quarterly regional Artist Town Meetings that bring artists, artisans and local food growers together as a constituency, supporting public art initiatives and participating on a variety of boards of directors in order to ensure that the arts are represented and involved in policy making.

Springfield [ www.springfieldvt.com ] In the early 1800s, a machine shop was built near four other mills where the Black River drops 110 feet in one eighth of a mile. Over the next century, an innovative machine shop culture evolved, putting Springfield in the forefront of "precision manufacturing." The machine tool industry boomed into the mid-20th century, contributing to America's efforts in two World Wars. In the downtown shopping district, one is never far from the sound of falling water.
