My lifelong dream as a kid growing up in Arkansas was one day to become a ‘commercial graphic designer’. Upon moving to Dallas after high school I immersed myself into any phase of printing and design I could learn. My entire adult life has been focused on all phases of printing from offset to digital to screen printing.

In Dallas I focused on apparel & signage with a 300 per hour M&R Sportsman shirt and textile press.

If a client turned their work over to my shop they could relax and know it would be delivered on time and better than they imagined if they provided adequate designs and money up front! Lol.

Clients in Dallas numbered into the hundreds and included Dallas Opera, Dance for the Planet, The Mavericks, The Cowboys, FeEx, Dallas Library, Yahoo, Office Depot, City of San Antonio, Google, etc.

Call it luck or perseverance, but after two very impossible years of trial and error and more error than I care to remember, not to mention the tens of thousands of dollars invested in inks, frits, mediums, cover coat and a kiln I finally ‘got it right’. I knew absolutely nothing about glass - especially the measurements in mm and grams of inks etc. The tens of thousands of dollars I invested all ended up in the dumpster many times and I started over and over again. One day however I paid a local glass school here to do yet one more test fire and that time it was fused hard core into the tube I tested. I was shocked, amazed and in awe that I’d finally done it!

All that trial and error and money down the drain so to speak really hit a home run, because I soon started hearing glowing reports about my decals to the few clients I started with. I was a total newbie in this industry and my three ‘competitors’ all had over fifty years. I love challenges but this one brought me to my knees many times until that glorious day it all came together!

It seemed that glass artists, craftsmen and production people really had no one to work with them in their branding, and every kind of project under the sun. I decided to take patience with them and as you all taught me about your craft, I was able to develop thick bright lucsious inks that would really make your glass POP! And of course MAKE YOUR SALES TRIPLE - AND MAKE YOUR PRICES DOUBLE or more! GUARANTEED!
