                         GBC Ep.30-Burt Murphy: Selling through Amazon

         For many glass artsit's 2020 creating an unexpected uptick in sales as the 2020 pandemic slowly brought retailers to a hault. For many, this dream slowly turned into a finacial nightmare as covid restrictions beagn to ease and reatilers opened their doors again to the public. While todays market place looks alot different then it did pre-pandemic ,new avenues have become available due to the push for online sales but the current state of the economy has caused budgets to become tighter and disposable income allocated to other financial responsibilities.

         However for many consumers new habits were created now having the ability to order anything online and have it delivered same day in some cases. This includes glass art. Now you may be wondringing what this has to do with glass art sales, so in todays episode my guest Burt Murphy, will reinfiore the the importance of differentiating your lines of work but also the outlets at which you sell them.

  • GBC Ep.27- SALT: Celebrating 20-Years Behind the Torch and Polishing Door Knobs
    2021/07/14

    Welcome to a Glass Blowers Companion Episode 27!

    It is finally time to kick off Season 6!  Thank you to everyone that has tuned in to the show, shared it with your friends and family, reached out to me with a comment and to all of the artists and guests who have taken time from their day to share their glass journey's.  

    Season 6 kicks off with one of my favorite artists and humans in the glass community SALT. For the last 20-years SALT has pushed the boundaries of borosilicate glass and shown true innovation when it comes to creating functional, smokable works of art.  In 2017 representing the pipe culture, the coning museum of glass invited Salt to demonstrate his craft on a streamed presentation and  eventually added the first pipe to its permanent  museum collection. 

    It was an honor to have SALT join me in the virtual studio and truly hope you enjoy this conversation.

  • GBC Ep.25- Wesley Fleming (VETROPOD): It's All in the Details
    2021/05/14

    Wesley and I sit down in the Virtual Studio to chat about his journey as a glass artist and how bugs became his main focus. The details achieved in a realistic scale give Wesley’s creations a realism that could be compared to the Blaschka family’s creations of glass specimens made for study at the Harvard Botatincal exhibit.

    “One of Harvard University’s most famous treasures is the internationally acclaimed Ware Collection of Blaschka Glass Models of Plants, better known as the “Glass Flowers." This unique collection was made by Leopold (1822-1895) and Rudolf Blaschka (1857-1939), a father and son team of Czech glass artists. Over fifty years, from 1886 through 1936, the Blaschkas produced 4,300 glass models that represent 780 plant species.” https://hmnh.harvard.edu/glass-flowers
