Back to the Future???

Time for another Flam­ing Hot! Blog It!

You fall asleep and think you are dream­ing. But really, you have just trav­eled through time for­ward 5 years. What does your glass world look like? Blog it!

Hmmm.? Well, I think it looks, ah, full of glass…

Seri­ously, now.

Hon­estly, I’m not sure how dif­fer­ent the stu­dio, at least, looks from today.? More glass, per­haps.? I hope I’ll have decided by then whether I’m giv­ing up the Bulls­eye or the COE104, since I already do mostly boro and two soft glass COEs is prob­a­bly unnec­es­sary.? There’s always the pos­si­bil­ity that I’ll have a bit big­ger torch by then, too.? Though since I’m leery of going with tanked oxy­gen, it wouldn’t be a whole lot bigger.

Out­side the stu­dio, though, I can see a suc­cess­ful lit­tle busi­ness on the side, mak­ing a mod­est profit every year with online sales and the hand­ful of shows I do, and a nice col­lec­tion of happy cus­tomers that are always glad to see me at those shows.? They eagerly inspect my new lam­p­work and pur­chase the per­fect trea­sures for their cre­ations.? Every time I have some­thing new and dif­fer­ent for them, as well as old favorites.? My style con­tin­u­ally evolves, but is always my own.

Most of all, though, I still have my won­der­ful glass world friends .
