Honu Glass is all things beautiful made from art glass. jewelry, plates, bowls, coasters, night lights, candle screens and more. Working with glass is creative, exciting, and surprising. Things do not always come out of the kiln as I was expecting because of the physics and chemistry of the glass. Tip of the hat to physics mentor Michael Grote,
I'm a physician on sabbatical, doing a few more cr
eative things for my soul, although I must say caring for patients is a real honor and privilege and the art of medicine requires a different kind of creativity. So, I'm embarking on this adventure, fusing glass, my creativity and favorite things and hoping to make something beautiful for others to enjoy. Etsy will be up and running in two weeks, and a formal website is coming.. You can reach me at the email below and please leave comments, questions and a "like" or two here on fb. So, what is a "honu" and what does it have to do with glass? Honu is Hawaiian for sea turtle and stands for luck, long life and peace. A little like the animation of "aloha," I think. I love to be under the water and coming up on one of these beauties is a "bucket list" experience for me. So, look for a turtle or two in the glass, along with other friends from the sea. Other themes of my glass are Art Nouveau and other vintage images, bright colors, scenes from nature, and of course, a little bling here and there. Email for this site is [email protected].
