Art Glass Drip Tips

[HollieGolightly]

heee, heee I reside in a 3200 sq.ft building that I converted partly as a home. It's been quite the project. I built a stained glass studio, a personal studio and an 8 person educational/student studio. I live with a master stained glass artist currently and one of my students. We call it glass camp I'm surrounded by nature, hiking areas, lakes...i love! it. I'm 43, so it's been a loooong crafty road for me.

To do something like that that you love. To be surrounded by all that light and color. Oh man. That is so cool Freddy. I love it.

Ok, there's a bit of me art for you tipsters...I'm soooo glad you are all appreciating and enjoying Bert's ingenious design and creations. I have always had true regard and respect for that man, he really reflects integrity in every!thing he applies himself to. I have had a blast! manufacturing for Bert, I couldn't imagine not doing it now. It has actually forced me to quit some designs I was manufacturing before...well! that's how it is in our industry and art, you have to do what you love and help create what people want designed. That said, if any of my artsy pictures inspire or reflect something you want to see done. Do Not! hesitate to ask Bert. Have an Awesome day everyone, I'll chime in again sometime soon....

best regards!

Freddy

Hi Freddy!!
So nice to finally meet ya Welcome to the thread, I'm glad you get to be here to share in our craziness. I'm loving all of your art, thank you so much for sharing your talent with us.


Delilah I'm starting to wonder if you sleep less than I do (which is almost scary lol), the crazy amount of likes I have every time I check back here makes me chuckle, big hugs to you

Good to meet you Freddy! Your work is amazing! Thanks so much for sharing - Thanks to the artistry here in TrippyTipsVil, I'll never look at glass the same way again!

Afternooners TrippyTippers You're right Blu, I didn't sleep last night! I was on a mission to complete reading this thread from the beginning My hats off to HzG8rGrl, she's been a Tipster from the Open Glass days!

As well as all of you who have been Tipsters since the previous web site, my hat's off to you too!

I remember the first time I heard about TrippyTips, sometime in the Spring of last year, and man, the previous TrippyTips web site was so confusing...Along the way I discovered Open Glass too and just drooled like a fool! Bert's come a long way baby! I wish I had discovered the thread sooner!

I got a great kick reading about the Beta Team and the secret handshake! But what stood out to me the most was the graciousness and generosity of so many Tipsters here! And I could see that it starts at the top with the TipMaster himself! What began as an interest in the thread's history and liking those I knew, ended in my liking every post because I loved the spirit here so much.

Okay, enough gushing, I think you all know how much I like you and this thread

I'm with you Delilah, I heard of Trippy Tips last year sometime, but since I've always got a million things going on, I never looked into them...I'm so glad I did

This really has become my home base here on ECF, great people and great art....what's not to like?

Wow, Freddy! Everything you have shared this afternoon is just incredible. My mother just got back from a trip to the Asheville area looking to move there. I may have to look you up!

 

[GlassyFreddy]

ok, I'm feeling a little more mobile (from my pinched nerve) so I'm gonna share just a couple of more werks and get a night shift on! Thank you all for your appreciation, I'm blessed to love what I do and when I am not making work for Bert I think about it. I've developed quite the emotional relationship with his item, which is a great! blessing for all! of you, since I will be just getting more and more involved and not be one bit bored any! time soon. Have a beautiful night my new friends, and remember Carpe! Diem
