The Heat is Blistering! What are you doing to Cope? We're going to Ann Arbor!



      There has been so much going on here ay Solinglass! We can barely keep up with ourselves! Sound familiar? Summer...  Has arrived with a string of strange weather patterns. Randi was on the road as I write and I have a lot to say....

    In the Fall of last year a lovely woman named Katherine Jamieson stopped by the studio in behalf of American Craft Magazine to do an interview with Randi Solin. Fitting timing, in my mind, as Randi has been now working in glass for 25 years now! (Hmmm Just like Oprah!). Katherine spent the whole day with us here in the hot shop.  Below is a link to the actual article..although, I highly recommend you subscribe to American Craft Magazine so You may keep abreast of all the talented artists and their work! 

American Craft Magazine article - Keep Your Damn Flowers!

They made the interview easy as pie... Even The 8 hr photo shoot with Randi went hilariously well! Joel was amazingly patient!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                         In March, Randi and I traveled to New York City, to Pier 94
                                                     for the  9th Annual 
                  Architectural Digest Home Design Show!
  We love attending this show, as we can see the new trends in Home Design. There is always something to do in the borough of Manhattan.... And as always, we enjoy several slices of pizza from a variety of local pizza joints ..yummmmmm
We were in the MADE section of the show, which we have seen grow from no section to a Sold Out "Artist Made" section, where Designers and the Public can meet the Artists and see their newest works in person. Randi's newest pieces: Sedona and Ferris were the Belles of the Ball!

You must see these beauties in person. The depth and optics of each piece define what Randi is looking for in her Fine Art Glass...Randi is a true Abstract Expressionist.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                 OK.... THIS IS COOL .....

     In the midst of all the goings on..a call came in regarding a Sahara Flat Vessel. ....................................
The people at ABC's The Lying Game have decided to use the Sahara Flat Vessel on the set on the show! Mindy at Haven Gallery  formerly in Austin, Texas happily informed us that we could catch a view of a beautiful Art Glass piece made by Solinglass while watching the Season Finale of The Lying Game!
 















....be sure to watch where else Solinglass has popped up!
Haven Gallery has moved since this Blog has been started! See what I mean about not catching up?
They are in the process of moving to Colorado! Good Luck Mindi... It was a pleasure working with you. We wish you great luck in your new location.

In April, we received news that whenever anyone flies the friendly skies, they now can peruse the Delta Sky Mall Catalog and Find SOLINGLASS in the newest Magazine. Thanks to the folks at the American Craft Council.

                                PIZZA 101

90 second PIZZA by Michael Wind   photo by Marie Formichelli
Always thinking, Michael Wind ,cold worker extraordinaire/fabulous cook, has been coming in on Wednesdays and tantalizing us,  and outside visitors with his 90 second Pizza... He puts a delicious array of topping on each individual pizza ranging from Prosciutto, caramelized onions, avocado, Gorgonzola cheese and artichokes! What a nice break from the usual "hecticness"  of "office day"... everyone is smiling.... Thanks Michael! ( I just had a piece of Avocado and sun-dried tomato pizza with Michael's home made red sauce on his "secret recipe" dough!) YUM YUM! I like Wednesdays.

Randi Solin and Solinglass have been invited in participate in the State Street Art Fair Again!




there are street performers, great food and music

Reeds stands proud in the front of the booth

 We love Ann Arbor ! We'd love for you to make the trek to the largest
 Art Fair in the country! There are 325 artists in this show....So... along with the
 other 4 shows I'm guessing there are over 1000 artists total all within a few blocks.
 All the streets are closed for pedestrian traffic
and everything takes place on the Beautiful
 University of Michigan Ann Arbor Campus.
 There are tons of things to do in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
 So come and say HI to Randi (and Marie)

We have had our share of road trips! and old Bessy 1996 Dodge 15 person van has finally seen her last voyage! We will miss her dearly, as we had some long fun trips in that vehicle ... from Chicago to Florida with two families; she has certainly seen a lot of  America... I can say now, that she was a reliable old girl as.. Randi and I never sat on the side of the road waiting to be rescued! Wait! I may have missed my knight in shining armor! But.. we will always have great memories of BESSY........  BYE BYE......................................



She has been replaced with......

TRISCUT  !                                                                                                                                                               

       A mini Dodge Sprinter.... comfy seats! She had her first road trip to Baltimore last month and did great! We were surprised to fit everything in!

Solinglass Travels to Africa!
 
And last, but not least! 

Solinglass sent two pieces with some Art Handlers to 
Nouakchott, Mauritania Africa  !  The Aquos Flat and the Sahara Emperor Bowl made it's way last week to the United States Embassy there! That makes 6 U.S. Embassies around the world, so far! Now , if we could only get them to send us there!

   I vow to live fully in each moment ,
   and to look at others thorough eyes of compassion!     

 peace.        See you in New York!
