Tony Sonnenberg- Pilchuck Glass


 

                Pilchuck Glass School was well represented Thursday night when six members of their residency program came to visit and share their experiences.

                The person that I enjoyed listening to most was Tony Sonnenberg.  Looking at pictures of his works was so inspiring as the detail that he puts into each piece is incredible.  He mentioned that many of his pieces are very beautiful but that does not necessarily arrive out of beautiful thoughts.  He shared how the labor of his work and the amount of time dedicated to each piece of art is important as one needs to devote themselves to their works if they want to have an amazing piece of art as the end result.   I share this same belief that one must give time and energy to their work if they desire a well-received outcome for themselves as well as the audience at hand.
