A Glass Sculptor or artist can turn the 'impossible' into 'possible' when it comes to making glass objects. But the high demand for glass collectibles these days doesn't seem to match the number of people making them. Although techniques in making art glass has been around for centuries, even now, glass artisans can be counted by hand.
That's because glass isn't a very easy material to work with. Rather, the use of this substance in art can even be questionable: with its translucent beauty and obvious fragility, it's a paradox in itself. Surely artists can use other materials which are easier to craft or transform. There is wood, clay, metal, cloth, paint, and even stone. However, there's just something about this substance which can only be described as 'ethereal'.
