WOW!! It’s been over 5 months since we put out our last blog (“Here We Go Again…Approaching Warp Speed”). Time flies by. In that blog I talked about how our glass firings and fairs had us out of control, but ended it on an optimistic note saying that I expected that...
Art to Harmony Blog
Welcome to Our New Website!
On the left side of this Home page under "What's New", there will be an article talking about exactly that..."what's new" on the website. I expect to update this monthly. The buttons across the top as well as those on the right side lead you to our two art areas...
Here We Go Again…Approaching Warp Speed!!
Those of you who have been following our Blog might remember the one entitled “Whoa Nellie”. Well, in that blog I talked about how our glass art life became frantic and totally out of kilter with constant activity, and that we needed to slow things down to achieve...
Snookered by a Pair of 8’s!!
The gaming site was in Paia…an artsy fun town that time forgot on Maui’s north shore. The players were local artists invited by Christine and Steve Turnbull to participate in a back room of their Paia gallery. It was a Saturday…8 pm on 15 December to be exact…that the...

Ugh!! What does he know anyway?!
It’s been well over a month since I wrote the last blog entry, “Whoa Nellie”. Our last blog was about how Sandy and I were “out of balance” in terms of the frantic pace we were on, and how we needed to slow things down to a more reasonable pace…a Maui pace…time to...
Whoa Nellie!!
The title of our blog series is “Harmony and Balance Through Art”. That has always been Sandy’s premise and the genesis of her business/website name…”Art to Harmony”. It has been my personal intention to seek balance and harmony through art in terms of my left brain...
Hot Digady
After finishing our first Banyan Tree weekend on the evening of August 5th at 5 PM, I had exactly 6.5 days to get some glass pieces created to back my request to be juried into the Lahaina Arts Society as an “artist”. I was scheduled to appear before the LAS jury at...
“Oi Vehy” and “OMG”
