Meet the Maker
“As makers we are inspired by seasons, weather, politics, and the love of the medium and it's endless versatility. Mike's work is often described as combination of Venetian ancient glass working techniques and the freedom of expression of the American Glass Movement . Mike loves sculpting solid glass forms, as well as blowing unique vessels and large wall platters.”
