BFG Works is a small glass art developer based out of Oakland, MD. All products sold are hand made locally. Started to work with hard glass recently
Every piece of glass created at Barefoot Glass is an extension of my own existence. Living in the mountains my entire life, I have come to respect the pure beauty of my surroundings. I try to instill this beauty into every piece. I use my art as a form of meditation to help me with my everyday stresses, and as a much needed daily release in my recovery.
Art has been a big part of my life since I was young. My grandmother instilled in me a love of art and nature which has allowed me to develop my own artistic abilities. Her art form was clay pottery. I enjoyed helping her create beautiful pieces then and now some of my own. She taught me how to respect art and use it to share my visions with others.
It is my hope that others will find inspiration in my work and realize they too can achieve so much through creativity. Without my creativity I don't know where I would be today, art has been a key tool in my recovery from addiction. I strive to inspire and relate to others whom have the same struggles and hurtles daily. Hopefully my work will someday help someone else to realize there are tools to success in recovery, and creativity is one of the best in my opinion. Live day to day and celebrate your recovery!
