Ugly Boy Flutes, Bob Child
Yes, it’s an unusual name for such a beautiful and spiritual instrument, but I am here thanks to “The Original Ugly Boy” which was, truth be told, ugly. But it played, bold and loud, and my excitement level was electrified as I began honing my craft since that day in July, 2002. Mine is a […]

I have had a long standing fascination with stone, rocks, and glass in any shape and form. It all captures and enthralls me with the colors, textures, translucence and varieties that nature and man creates. Glass, (although a man-made medium) is created from sand and has a character all of its own. Moving here 2 […]
Amanda Yoder
For me, crafting home furnishings is both a practice of embodied living – expressing myself in a way that unifies the physical and spiritual – and a study of people now and before. We have so much in common with our collective ancestors, as much as we may protest our differences with them. Perhaps everyday […]
