    I'll be back on the West Coast after the 10th of November...can you give me an idea of what kind of project you're working on, time commitment, and duration? I'm based out of Seattle but would be happy to travel down the coast to work with you for a couple of weeks or a month...

    Egos...in Seattle we call them (gl)assholes. :-)

    Hi Orion- your website is really great! Did you create it? Anyway, I am a glassblower who has just relocated from Mt. Shasta, CA to Vermont and I am looking for a job or trade similar to your need. Wrong coast, tho. I hope you have found someone perfect to assist you with your amazing art. How did you start? Did you work for other glass artists? I am looking for any helpful advice as I am a newbie with the medium of glass. I also am intrigued by the variety of media you have worked with as I am also a sculptor and fibers artist.
    Reply if you have the will and time.
    Take care and may inspiration grow
