Lea
was recently honored to attend a three-day workshop
in Brooklyn, NY with internationally renowned glass
artist, Paul Stankard. Stankard, who is acclaimed
for his incredibly accurate renditions of botanicals
in his highly collectible crystal paperweights,
is shown here demonstrating his lampworking prowess
to the class. |

witty and humorous presentation kept the class amazed! |
