I received my copy of the current issue of "The Flow", a magazine devoted to lampworking. This issue is their annual Women in Glass roundup and our own Kalera Stratton has an amazing focal bead in it! Congratulations, Kalera!

I have the issue, too - it's just wonderful!! So much good stuff.
:-) One of my spiral dragons is in the issue also :-) (Amid a truly stunning assortment of work)
And without giving up my age, lol, let me just say I REMEMBER firsthand from growing up amid glassworkers and when I began as a lampworker (apprenticing with my father) 'women' working glass was commonly 'discouraged' ~ hence women working glass was rare - So these issues Will and Jen are creating & publishing are not only beautiful but a historical benchmark too! (and Jennifer & the team are great to work with).
Congrats Kalera!
