Learning from the Master

I just returned from great glassmaking workshop at Inspired Fire Glass Studio. The workshop was lead by amazing glass master artist from Venice- Lucio Bubacco. This was most surreal experience, watching master glass artist create glass art right in front of me. The pieces of glass emerged from molten balls of glass as if by magic. All perfect in every detail! While watching Lucio, I felt completely in awe and I hope someday I can create with equal mastery... it will only take me 20 years ;)
