Having worked for many years with the crusty, earthy side of glass when I first saw this iridescent glass I took an instant dislike to it. It was too pretty, shiny, reflective. It was everything I had avoided. I realized I had to find a way to bring it into my work, to bring in balance and fullness. One night I had vivid dreams about wings and flight and freedom. When I awoke I knew I would use this glass to make the wings.
