We've jumped in with both feet and opened our first retail store in downtown Atascadero. You'll not only see examples of my blasting work, but also the wonderful glass artistry of Judy Marr and Estella Webb. Soon to come, we'll establish a live viewing area so that you can see the artists working on actual projects. For the time being, the store is only open limited hours, so please drop me an email or give me a call at (805) 462-2791 if you'd like to set up a time to drop by.

Hope to see you soon!

Another good reason to check out www.glassartnetwork.com is to have an excuse to eat some popcorn and watch an educational video on glass shaping. A free lesson just for you..........and you..........................and you...................Here's a picture of what Mike Mudd does for his friends who want a nameplate. Just takes a broken piece of mirror and goes to town. It's really ingenious, and, all you need to give it a try is on the video in my article. Please support Sue's efforts to give all of you glass artists a venue. It's a wonderful place to spend some time. Later. Butch.
