I do believe that you teach some folks, but I can guarantee that not one of them is making a living doing plates, vases, and kilnforming. Sure you can make a few thousand selling anything from boats to plates to beads, but in 30 years doing this I have yet to see 1 person making a living doing only that. I know some wonderful artists making beautiful plates for big bucks, but not one is your student or supporting their family doing it alone.

OK here's another question. Is there anyone in the glass industry that you respect and who's opinion you do consider consequential? If that person asked you the same questions about your claims, would you answer them in a public forum? I've tried to give you every chance to back up what you say, you've yet to provide any proof for any of it. -- JK Sinrod http://www.sinrodstudios.com http://myconeyislandmemories.com |

The funny thing is...anybody else in the glass business can post almost anything on any subject, and never have their statements challenged. Except by D-Anus, who has never met a fencepost he didn't want to argue with and lie to. And Mikey Savad...remember him? Also someone in serious need of heavy-duty medications. LOL |

an amateur is just that. and a beginner is an amateur. Not a pro, so should
not be selling work until they have gained a bit of technical experience and/or artistic merit. More power to 'em if they can actually get someone to buy, but generally, an amatuer should be happy to find someone to give it to while they learn to perfect their technique! Once they know what they are doing, they can turn pro and start selling (or not) but a beginner/apprentice has no business marketing their 'study' pieces to the general public. friends, family, well, if they want to pay for more lessons, go for it.... m wrote in message ...

Thank Christ for the decoder ring eh ? As far as the glass is concerned, not mine but if I did do a project like that, it would probably turn out "Far Worse". You see, I am a beginner and don't really have the aspirations to become a 'full time' glass master such as yourself ! I'm more interested in the "mixed media" aspect of Glass... Unfortunately, you seem to have no problem critiquing a panel that is barely visible in a ****ty photo... At least that Joker is actually "selling work" instead of just talking about it. Perhaps you should stick to what you know best ("Sucking the bend out of a river".) and leave the critiquing to the professionals. (please feel free to contact the neighbors to figure out the hidden meaning in this message....) Cheers Screwface ! /FC That was real classy. About as classy as trash talking someone for trying to sell their work? http://www.glasscampus.com/tutorials...20or%20Pro.pdf |

If you didn't have some perverted need to gain acceptance, you wouldn't keep showing up here and being exposed for being a liar and a fool.

you hire an electrician. you want to pay a beginner to wire your house? or
someone that knows their job. You go to a doctor, you want a med student passing themself off as a Dr. to treat you? Your mechanic is just learning, so he doesn't quite fix the problem. Your engine quits on the freeway and you get in awreck. Want a beginner working on your vehicle? it's the same as any industry out there, you get paid when you know what you're doing, until then it's practice. wrote in message ...

Isn't it getting close to time for you to slink off (again) and lick your wounds for a couple more months? These little exchanges can be fun - but I must admit it's become too easy and predictable to be a challenge. I can't imagine anybody other than this tiresome little group being willing to put up with the trite and tawdry commentary routinely displayed here. Haven't you figured out yet that is why participation on this board has pretty much evaporated? Your gutter version of humour might be big in Gator****, but it's just silly elsewhere. Perhaps you and Michelle should start an association to certify basement bandits? Nobody should be allowed to offer any of their work for sale until you approve? Definitely entertaining. Adapt or die. |
