Gallery View, October 2016
I am pleased to share my newest work at Traver Gallery in Seattle through October 29, 2016.
“From Here to Infinity” refers to both my journey as an artist and to the infinite complexity and variation I find in glass. My latest works evoke the micro-world of cells and microscopic life and the macro-view of vast space and time as described in physics. I am also pushing into new territory with a large black-and-white wall piece, “Quilt”, that sums up my explorations in pattern to date.
A catalogue with essay by Diane Wright, Barry Curator of Glass at the Chrysler Museum, is available on request. Contact sarah@travergallery.com for a copy. I hope you can see the show in person!
Many thanks to Joe Benvenuto, Benjamin Cobb, Alix Cannon, Karston Oaks, Dave Walters, The Museum of Glass, STAR Glassworks, and all the students, artists, and collectors whose support assisted me in the creation of this show.
“Droplets”, “Quilt”, and “Orbs”

As part of Glass Weekend 2016, Richard Royal and myself spent a day blowing glass for an appreciative audience at the Hoogs & Crawford studio in Canaan, NY. Many thanks to Nathan and Liz, owners of the studio, for all their support and assistance. Thanks also to Jen Violette for coming down from Vermont to help us and to all the collectors who attended Glass Weekend!

I was thrilled to be featured at Glass Weekend 2016 at Schantz Galleries in Stockbridge, MA. Jim & Kim Schantz and their hardworking staff put together this fun event every summer and it is always a treat for both the artists and collectors. This year was extra special with an added event, “The Nature of Glass” at Chesterwood, the historic home and studio of Daniel Chester French. This nearby museum has beautiful grounds and views of the surrounding valley. I created a special installation for the woodland setting of Orbs and Winkles.

One day of my recent residency at the Museum of Glass was devoted to making life-size glass Snowmen. It’s becoming an annual tradition at MOG! Enjoy the photos of some very hot snowmen.
