But to do what you do takes loads of talent and lots of time to learn! <br /><br />If you ever feel like sending glass cabs to be set in silver, let me know.<br /><br />Peace.Butternut Squashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14703748547994069092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-29043828628766850852010-07-10T13:01:27.990-05:002010-07-10T13:01:27.990-05:00It's absolutely lovely, and I've always be...It's absolutely lovely, and I've always been so fascinated by glass works. I say always, but really it dates back to being seventeen, and seeing an exhibit of some Tiffany Stained Glass in DC. I felt in love with glass then. <br /><br />I like your stories, Ellen. I love the way you look back. It's this very forthright sort of thing and for some reason that style brings it to a very vivid life. <br /><br />Somewhere in there is the perfect tie-in to working with glass, how you arrest vivid life, etc. but I leave it to someone with more poetry in their words than I possess. <br /><br />Just saying, that's what you made me think about, and even if I'm not expressing this well? It was a particularly lovely thing to think about on a beautiful summer's day.
