A Siren sings of glass

Well, here I am, blogging. In true old-school fashion, I sat down with a pen and scribbled a few thoughts on a piece of paper. Yeah, that's not the way to start a blog - lesson learned.

As the title suggests, this blog is about animals and hobbies, and I imagine I will find things to say off topic as well.

I was thinking about how I started working in stained glass in the early '80s, moved to fused glass in the '90s and came back to the art form in a big way a couple of years ago. Glass is my "siren song", mystical and alluring, impossible for me to resist for too long. I like this particular representation I found on Wikipedia, especially her feet! Maybe someday, I will learn how to sculpt and cast her in glass :-)

So, just to say I've done it, I am going to sign off for now. More to come.

  1. Yay! You started! I'm so proud of you. The statue is cool. The feet are a little creepy ;)
