How many years have you worked with glass?

What percentage of the day do you think about or work on your art?
I would like to say 100% but I have a family, a job and pets (2 dogs and 2 cats) I do dedicate some time each day to my work.

Describe your studio:
I have a room in my house that is dedicated to my glass work. I like working at home because I can work any time I have a free moment. I have a talented woodworker husband who has built me a fantastic work table. I have a couple of kilns, a torch, and lots of glass. I like to turn on some music and just relax and explore. That doesn't mean everything turns out perfect but we learn a lot from our mistakes.

Tell me something about you:
I have always loved art, I think it started with my first box of 72 crayons, so many lovely colors. I paint, draw, mosaic, and work with the kiln. I enjoy creating art and am very happy that I can share my work with others.
