I found this book to be inspiring and informative. Reviewer: Audrey Lang (gaslang@aol.com) from St. Louis, Missouri (USA) August 13, 1999 As an artist working in glass, I found this book to be inspiring and informative. The inclusion of many different artists work expressed the diversity of the medium. It also demonstrates how one particular technique can be used to achieve many different expressions. The technical "recipes," offered in this book are fantastic. They enable one to take an artistic idea, and turn it into reality, with limited experimentation. Sharing this technical information is a brave thing. Thank-You Lucartha Kohler!!!!
