"I bought a torch before I ever made any lampwork beads.  We live not far from the Pilchuck glass school . Some of the best glass artists in the country work in the NW corner of Washington State. But from the first time I saw one when visiting one of their studio open houses, I knew I wanted to make glass beads.  So I bought a torch, took a class, and then practice, practice, practice! That was over fifteen years ago!
I am a full time beadmaker, making lampwork beads every day in my studio."
