Welcome to my site!

Lampworked / flameworked glass-art is an old art-form.
Lampworking dates back thousands of years. The techniques are very old, while the actual term lampworking goes back to the 17th century, as wax or oil-lamps were used for shaping the glass. Today gas- torches are being used.
In gallery I you will see my glass-sculptures on wood and rock-bases.
In gallery II freestanding and hanging.

I work with borosilicate glass,also known as hard glass. Starting out with cut glass rods,
I shape the glass in the flame by heating it to a molten stage, then I use different gathering, pushing- and pulling-techniques.
It is all made freehand. No molds!
