“Tektite glass is a melange
of silica and metallic oxides that I derived from the spectrographic analysis
of an actual glassy meteor. Totally different from the smooth, crystal clear
glass I usually work with, this substance is rough, dark, bubbly and
uncooperative. And definitely never meant to be blown! I use this coarse black
material to create interesting juxtapositions with my Planets, Corona glass and
iridescent glass.”

studio light to reveal the maximum depth and detail of each piece. Colors may vary
slightly in different lighting situations.
