Hello Glass and Bead Friends!
I am thrilled to
announce that I will be returning to Tucson
this year! It has been two years since I’ve been there and I miss the people
and the town itself.
I will be exhibiting at a new show, the Tucson Glass Art and Bead
Festival, a show focusing on handmade glass. The line-up of exhibitors
has some of the most talented artists in glass. One such artist, Jared DeLong,
has not been in Tucson for several years and his glasswork and carving skills
are unrivaled. Also attending will be a
group of Japanese artists who have cornered the market on delicate detail in
their glass beads and artwork. Lewis Wilson
will present select items for viewing and
sale from his personal collection-- along with his own artwork; he has been
making glass art for over 40 years! A full list of exhibitors seen here at http://www.tucsonglassartshow.com/exhibitors.html.
This year, my husband Paul will be with me at the show. He
just finished writing Conciatore, the
Life and Times of 17th Century Glassmaker Antonio Neri, a
biography on Antonio Neri, author of the first printed book of glass recipes published
in 1612. Paul will be available to discuss his new book, Antonio Neri, and to
sell signed copies of Conciatore. (For more info on Conciatore: http://www.conciatore.org/
Continuing with tradition, I will have my friend Emilio Santini’s miniature bottles, amphorae and earrings for
sale. All pieces are brand new and
beautiful!
Please stop by and say hello, I would love to see you!
