Meditation through Art

An awesome day of hot glassblowing today.  I had not blown glass in about year and half, and missed it so much. It’s like riding a bike.  My skills came right back after handling the blowpipe again just like magic.  In fact, the glass artist I worked with today asked me to serve as one of her apprentices and assistants.

Glassblowing is very zen and meditative.  Once one becomes comfortable with the molten glass and hot temperatures, it’s almost trance like when one becomes completely aware of the moment, feeling connected to the flame, glass, and fluid movements.  It is quite amazing and beautiful to watch glass being blown. Brings me joy and a smile, Brooke
