Artist Statement
Our dedication to glass is evident in our
attention to detail and quality. We have
worked together successfully with galleries
since 1979 and have expanded into creating
projects for public art, hotels, corporations,
churches, and residences. Rick has
attended Pilchuck Glass School frequently
since 1981, and Janet collaborates with
color and design. Our team is prepared to
fabricate and install custom commissions
from your design or ours on time and within
any budget. Our work includes figurative
sculpture, sculptural lighting and fountains,
and elegant, asymmetrical platter forms
for the table, wall, or ceiling. Skills include
freehand blowing, hot sculpting, kiln casting,
glass fusing, and metal fabrication. Visit
