Do you admire greatly
another Artist? Wonder
how in the world they
do what they do?
Well by embracing some
collaboration you will see
new personal growth
and direction, as well
as deepened friendships.
as deepened friendships.
not only my friend, but an
incredible artist! She etches
glass, is a lapidary, and
a scientific illustrator.
a scientific illustrator.
Some time ago she informed
me that one could paint and
draw onto glass. Pastels,
pencils + paint - amazing!
Out came our pencils to
schedule some play-dates,
where we both got to experience the others medium.

And two very successful art
exhibitions resulted from our
collaboration. Above left is a
detail of Angel, one collaborative
piece. The show was to be of
salt water species, but Nancy
humored me for I wanted to
create this image badly. I mean
the etched stripes in the glass
was so funk and correlated
with the stripes of the painted
angel!
To the right is one of Nancy's
incredible pieces, Crab Decanter.
Play-dates refresh and revitalize an
artist, especially if one has a home studio.
Try it and create with a buddy!
Both pieces are lovely and the idea for growth in this way is facinating!
