Creative Glass







A post about this nice book i was asked to be in by Danijela Kracun and published by Schiffer,who publish a lot of books about art ,craft and the like. I was very pleased to be asked to be in it as it also contains a lot of my glass heroes,too numerous to mention. I was especially pleased to find one of my pieces on the front cover(thats me in the midddle of the top row) . Here is a link to the blogpost about it. You also have a picture here too of my double page spread inside.Its available on Amazon. Please leave a comment !
