 en Lanford's "Flow-er"</strong></p>\n<p>Our initial exhibition\, named "Fl
 ow" in 2023\, inspired us to call this year's show "Flow-er." Since our fi
 rst exhibition\, we continued to work with the seemingly disparate media o
 f glass\, oil\, and watercolor. We loved seeing how watercolor and oil flo
 w onto surfaces\, and how glass\, when heated\, starts to flow and soften 
 into new forms.</p>\n<p><br />The flow of creativity began to Flower into 
 our second exhibition and became a deeply integral part of our thoughts an
 d daily lives. We experimented with new seeds of ideas and visions. Many t
 ook root and began to Flower into new creations. This brought such deep jo
 y\, and we hope to share this joy with others through our paintings and fu
 sed glass pieces</p>\n<p><br />"There are always flowers for those who wan
 t to see them." - Henri Matisse</p>\n<p><strong>Stephen&rsquo\;s Bio</stro

 br />Patty has always been fascinated by glass ever since she was a child 
 living outside of Philadelphia\, where she watched glass being formed into
  amazing vessels and ornaments by wondrously skilled artists. As an adult\
 , teaching became a passion for Patty\, and she enjoyed an amazing 37 year
  career in Little Rock\, Arkansas\, where she focused on helping students 
 develop their critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills. Later
 \, she embraced a new passion inspired from her childhood love of glass. S
 he started to work with fused glass and fell in love with the process. She
  often gets her ideas and inspirations from the natural world\, as well as
  the constantly changing flow of color and light. Patty takes great joy in
  the adventure of creating each unique piece.</p>\n<p><br />&ldquo\;You ca
 n&rsquo\;t use up creativity. The more you use\, the more you have.&rdquo\
