When I was very young, I recall watching a flame workerat Disney World fashioning a sailboat out of glass. To me,observing something so rigid transform into such a liquidform was truly one of the most magical things in the world.Later in life, while studying art at the University of Massachusetts,I became interested in three dimensional forms and sculpture.In the pursuit of finding new means to express myself, I discoveredglass. After rigorously searching for anyone who would teach meI came across the humble Dragonfly Studio in eastern Pennsylvania.There I was introduced to the basics of lampworking: marbles,pendants, and small vessels. From that point forward in mylife I have strived to learn new techniques and advance myskills.  I am captivated by organic forms in glass. I have taken a step back to review the work of lamp workers before me. A professor once said to me, "practicing the basics and reviewing the past will always move you forward." I have always believed this to be true and have found thatit has helped me most in developing my artistic niche in glassworking.   Here's a few links for topics discussed  http://www.talkglass.com/forum/forum.php Www.daveramsey.com Investment calculatorhttp://www.daveramsey.com/elp/investing-calculator-article#/advanced_entry_form Www.wyzguyradio.com.
