We will discuss current and former craftsmen and designers and how important it is that Blenko and West Virginia glass be appreciated and valued by the younger generation.

Welcome Your Comments on Art, Work , Life, & Collecting!

An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have. Andy Warhol
"I suppose I have a really loose interpretation of 'work', because I think that just being alive is o much work at something you don't always want to do. The machinery is always going, Even when you sleep. " Andy Warhol


We have too many people who live without working. We have too many more who work without living. At some point in our 'career' we must choose between living to work and working to live…" - Dean Charles R. Brown

Sol, sent this quote a few weeks ago. I must say so far - 'I love work'
. . . . but like the idea of retiring early, very early.

Having hobbies make retirement much more interesting, actually collecting can make all life more interesting. IF you haven't started a collection of BLENKO or other West Virginia This is your 'lucky week'

the WV Birthday /Blenko will be sold on Friday June 20th at BLENKO GLASS Milton, West Virginia. A limited edit on - only 145 pieces.
