    Art Brokerage: Danny Perkins American Glass Artist: Danny Perkins has been studying the art of glass blowing for the past twenty years, which includes an apprenticeship with Lino Tagliapietra before becoming a teaching assistant to both Paul Marioni and Dan Dailey at the Pilchuck School. Perkins also participated as an Artist in Residence at Pilchuck. His gorgeous towering glass vessels involve a unique technique that employs blowing glass into a wooden mold, cutting the glass, reassembling the pieces, and then sandblasting the final vessel to a matte finish before airbrushing color onto the surface. The result is both luminous and electric. "I am a student of the abstract expressionists in the sense that my work is based on emotions rather than representational references. Creating sculpture is the connection between my psyche and body. First it is a physical and group effort to blown and form my large fluid glass forms. Then a solitary and intimate process of breaking them. The colors with the forms I use are emotion, they are love, sex, god, pain and joy. I have developed relationships with the colors over the years, so when I paint the shards the colors have faces that I know intimately..." artist statement. Listings wanted by Art Brokerage.
