Light + Glass Studio Blog
It was brought to my attention that I never posted images of Jerri’s cast glass pieces she created for the Nature Conservancy (I still think I did, but I can’t find any evidence of that . . .). So here are some shots of the awards at the banquet. Continue reading ‘Nature Conservancy Awards’
Jerri has been a busy bee, and I have a new favorite Humanities award . . .
I’ve also added a few more new shots of her work to the slumped glass gallery at LightandGlass.net.
Jerri has received a commission to create quite a few glass pieces for the humanities council. She is somewhere around the half way point in creating them, and I’ve taken a few shots of the ones she has finished. Although I doubt I can do justice to describing how she makes them, my version is that she melts a bunch of glass that she pours into a new sheet, then she cuts and polishes a circle out of that new sheet, and then slumps the polished circle into the form you see here.

I’m not going to recap the show as if I was writing this before it happened, for that you can head over to prettyfakes.com and read the many posts by Gorjus. But since many of the images are sold and now living in their new homes, I will provide the digital versions in case you missed it. I’ve got all those, and some interiors I took right before the show opened, in a gallery at lightandglass.net.
This past weekend Jerri and I went down to Biloxi to participate in the Ohr Fall Festival. We set up on Friday afternoon, and then sold all day Saturday, and Sunday until five. All in all it was a great time. There were a few oddball comments, such as, “Is this art or photography” and “if it’s that fragile I don’t want it”. Things I wouldn’t say in the fine arts section of a show, or to an artist working in glass, respectively. Continue reading ‘Ohr Festival OR Jerri Likes a Bag Over My Head’
Thanks to everyone who came out last night, the reception went really well. I took a little time before we opened to take some photos of Jerri’s work for the show, which I had sadly neglected documenting until that point. I also took a few shots of the gallery area of the studio, for those of you who won’t get to see the show. All of the photos can be found here.
If you notice the one table devoid of any art, that was the food table for the reception not a special minimalist piece.
Jerri and I both have new work which we will be showing at Light and Glass, with a reception for the show next Thursday the 20th at 6pm.
I’ve posted images from this past weekend’s show over at LightandGlass.net. The folder they are in is hidden unless you use the direct link, not that I am trying to keep them secret, but I want to make sure first time visitors don’t think they are part of my portfolio.

The free press ran an article in this weeks issue about Light and Glass. It is available online here.
The opening went great, thanks to everyone who helped out and all the people that came by to check it out. I have posted lots of high ISO, non-color-corrected photos from the opening on a new flickr account I set up for just such a purpose.
UPDATE: Lucian Dixon has posted some photos he took at the opening here. Continue reading ‘Opening Recap’
