Collaborations allow artists to work together, push limits and create pieces they normally wouldn't have made on their own. They are also tough to pull off because artists usually only have one vision - their own.

I recently spent a few days in Arcata at MrGray's shop. Gray Space. Alien Flowers. Tenticles. Opal Asteroids. Gray's Gak Green. Vegas. 'nuff said!

Intergalactic Doubler Madness! We spent the last few days working on this monster to bring to Vegas - stands a little over a foot tall and weighs over 3-1/4 LBS! I was the parts factory and Nick rocked out the assembly line. We had a great time with this one - it went together perfectly, and we only had to make a few things over (and over, and over) a handful of times...lol. Thanks for looking!

"Head Space" I worked at the Ventura shop for a few days recently and got to collab with VOORHEES. He made a face from my space prep and then I assembled it into a sherly. I had a tough time photographing the face details since it's all clear sculpture/carving work, but I assure you it's crisp!

Recent collabs between Mr. Wizzard and I. This is our first collab together since 2003...all I can say is that it's been far too long.

Whew, it's been a crazy winter so far, and it's not even over yet! Here's some pictures to go along with my January 18th post at http://n8dogger.blogspot.com. Thanks to everyone at Flameworks in Austin, Wicked Sands and Original Glass in LA, and a special thanks to DoshWorld, BC, Lurch, Salt, Micah Evans, and Kevin Ivey.
I also did some other collabs during this road trip that aren't pictured yet, but will soon be added: Micah, Ben (of OG glass), and a Travis Weber (mail colab).

Here's the result of a recent collaboration. Lee Zeigler, Jason Lee, and myself put this together after an early morning MTB ride last week. Jason Lee brought the prep and did the assembly/shaping, Lee Zeigler did the large wrap around cane, and I did the marbles. Kind of a lot going on here in just a little bit of space but we didn't have a lot of time/energy left after the MTB ride. Thanks for looking!

Here the three of us got together in my Oregon Studio and did the first three marbles of the Tribute Series; Robert Mickelsen, Josh Sable, and Gateson Recko. They came out pretty sweet, and I had tons of fun. More to come!

Here is a colab Matt and I did sometime in 2006. I actually ended up buying this piece back for my personal collection because I liked it so much.

We gathered at Blue Devil's studio shortly after Hurrican Katrina hit New Orleans with intentions to collaborate and auction off anything and everything made that weekend to the Katrina Relief Fund. It was a great time and artists came from Oregon to Far north Washington State to help, and all in all it went rather well.

Here is a colab Erik Anders and I completed after AGI in 2005. I spent a few days out in NY visiting Erik, and I learned so much during my visit, I feel forever in debt. Erik is a super nice dude and now runs a Glass Supply business; check it out at Vaporglass.com. Tell him N8 sent ya!

It was a small turnout at Emmett's shop in Monroe Washington, but we made two sculptures and had alot of fun.
Thanks to Tom @ Northstar, Ross @ ABR, Kristian @ Generations Glass, and Grandpa @ Profound Glass for donations. Also a big thanks to everyone who made it in attendance for the good times...especially ZEUS! This guy rode his bike mass miles in the rain to get to the colab and he brought a willing-to-work-attitude and left his ego at home. Toast to Zeus!

I'm N8, 30 y/o, and I currently reside along the Lost Coast in Northern California. I started glassblowing in 2002 and while I'm primarily self-taught, I did receive plenty of help along the way from a few good friends and the GLDG. Glassblowing has taken me all around our beautiful country while providing many great experiences and lifelong friendships - I wouldn't trade it for anything. The artwork shown here is not for sale. If you have questions, please contact me through my website.
