The Story Behind the Art:
 

Having the opportunity to work with such a moldable product in all its forms as glass becomes a wonderful opportunity to create something completely original. It is so satisfying to work with a product that represents a millenary art, not only because of the marked significance that it has had over the years. Though it has been made in different countries of the world, it has become a Mexican handicraft. And Mexico, rich in culture and history, provides us as artists with enough means to obtain inspiration and show the world this art in its different styles.

I have known glass for years. It took a lot of practice and mistakes to be able to handle it and improve every day. Glass is a material that, once you know it, is so friendly and easy to handle. I particularly like working with recycled glass fragments, melting them at a temperature of 1300 c and adding color with oxides.
