At the auction - I saw several pieces of work ( photos will be coming later) that were outstanding. My favorite for reasons I can't explain was entitled ROLLING DECANTER & GLASSES it was by Pmina Traylor an artist and educator from California College of Art. It was one of the least expensive items ($627 starting bid) but it spoke to me. Simple - unique - when I post the photo I hope you will also be moved by the design.
Another person whose work
was very impressive as was he is ANDREW ERDOS he is the STUDENT Representative to the Glass Arts Society. Winslow Anderson Blenko Glass Company's very first designer was an Alfred University graduate so I hold Alfred Grads in a place of high honor - and Erdos certainly earns that place. His energy, his creativity and his impressive portfolio. Below is a brief bio
of Andrew and a link to some of his work. Keep the name in mind. I'm certain you'll be hearing more about Erdos in the Glass Art World
Andrew Erdos began taking glass blowing classes at Bucks County Community College when he was 15. He has been a student at Alfred University since fall 2003 and will be Graduating spring 2007. In 2002, Andrew took an intensive class with Stephen Rolfed Powell. In 2004, he attended a two week collaborative class taught by Gabrielle Kushner and Josh Simpson and a four week intensive class with Sean Albert. He has been operating a small lampworking studio in Newtown, Pennsylvania since winter 2004. He has work in the private collections of Mr. and Mrs. Michelle Guggenheim and JuniorMarvin (guitar player for Bob Marley and the Wailers). See more of his work at http://www.andrewerdos.com/
