Today for the final episode of Season 4 of Cracked I’m speaking with the queen of sgraffito,  the Italian word directly translated to “scratched.” Her time consuming technique of flooding a thin layer of lead based powder paint over colorful patchwork like glass pieces, and then meticulously scratching it off revealing negative space designs that come together to create elaborate and rich stories.  Drawing from her experiences of her childhood and family, in her stained glass pieces Lil weaves a tail of greblins, witches, fairies and sea creatures to name just a few.

Let's get into it!
Join me as I crack it all wide open! 

For the final Patreon page drawing of the season,  I'm doing a drawing of 2 names!  One winner will receive the Map Mundi print + a set of greeting cards and another winner will receive a sgraffito stained glass white lily made by Lil and a set of greeting cards. The Map print is 11”x13.5” and the flower is 3.5”  I'll be doing a drawing for those on September 17th.

 Hi friends and welcome back to Cracked with Chevonne Ariss!
Today for episode 51 of Cracked I’m joined by Ellen Van Dijk . She’s a stained glass artist based in The Netherlands best known for her  photo realistic portraits. Drawing and painting portraits since childhood, her love for drawing and the desire for creative expression has been present for as long as she can remember. The combination of portraiture and learning to make stained glass windows brought her to where she is today. Today we’re talking about her personal experience with heartfelt portrait commissions, travel adventures of teaching, her in person classes as well as her online classes, and a couple really great glass paining glass hacks! To see more of Ellen's work, her instagram is  @glasatelierellen  and her website is glasatelierellen.com.

He spends most of my time on the road as a tour manager for bands  including Girl Talk, Beirut, and Dinosaur Jr.  and when at home he builds colorful, geometric stained glass pieces and custom windows. His work has been installed in houses, gardens and shops throughout the West Coast and greater United States.
 Today we’re going to discuss the eternal question of what it is we’re meant to be doing professionally, an honest look at what working during the pandemic looked like and finding extraordinary inspiration and imagery in the everyday moments around us.
To see more of David’s work is Instagram is @davidscheidstainedglass and his website is davidscheidstainedglass.com.

Today we’re talking BBLs, BBGs Bounce Clubs, Baddies and so so much more today with Booty Glass Girls’ New Orlean’s artist Kyle Hubbs. Kyle is a self-taught stained glass maker who began his work with glass in 2014. After several years of experimenting with more traditional and geometric work, as a native of south Louisiana he looked no further than his own New Orleans for inspiration for his current and modern expression of glass. He credits the exuberance, attitude, style and self-confidence of young people in his local bounce clubs as the muses for his work. Bounce is a style of music that originated in New Orlean's bars and local nightclub scene during the late 1980s and early 90s. Using a call-and-response  style of flow inspired by the Mardi Gras chants that were common in New Orleans brass bands. It brought a new life to New Orleans’ own brand of Louisiana hip-hop and continues today to grow in popularity and be nationally recognized in current songs like Beyoncé’s “Get Me Bodied," Rihanna’s “Pour it Up" and Drake’s “Nice for What.”

There’s been a bit of controversy around Kyle because he's a male and coming into today, many of us thought he was a female. With that came assumptions and projected intentions and narratives around of his work. Then once listeners realized he was a man, really strong opinions about cultural crossover, exploitation and appropriation began to fill my DMs. I wanted to give Kyle a platform to speak on all of it, and he knew what he was walking into, so Kyle, thank you for showing up. And for you the listener, I ask that you hold your judgement til you listen to my talk with Kyle in it’s entirety. Duality in art is so important. Art that inspires conflict within us is important. Whether it's violent but also beautiful or full of both sorrow and joy. These are the conversation starters. Right? And these conversations are often the ones that can spark growth.

The core mission of this podcast is about celebrating stained glass art, and my love for the work of Booty Glass Girls is unwavering. Despite all my questions,  there's no question in my mind that the cross pollination of this contemporary culture and stained glass is still a smash hit. All right let’s get into it…

Join me as I crack it all wide open!

For the Patreon Kyle is gifting a 20"x16" numbered print.  I’ll be doing a drawing for that 12 days after this episode is released!

Today on Cracked I'm joined by artist Erin from Erin Glassworks. Her work is inspired by nature,  with a focus on her local Florida wildlife. When she's not translating the natural world into a  glass design she's building community and educating other artists and small business owners through her social media. Today Erin and I are going through how she's running things down in Largo Florida, exactly how and where she's making her profit, the art of Patreon,  ways she's minimizing her impact on the environment through her packaging and how she's found, at least in my opinion, the most organic and thoughtful way to create an online stained glass community. To see more of Erin's work, her instagram is @eringlassworks and her website is eringlassworks.com.  For the Patreon page members Erin is gifting her guide to Social Media eBook, and for 1 member we’re doing a drawing for a set of her layout frames.

Today for episode 46 of Cracked I'm joined by Jacob Hinnenkamp, the son 1/2 of  Cincinnati's father and son duo Hinnenkamp Glass Crafters. As a young child Jacob remembers watching his father work on windows, mesmerized by the amount of detail and care that went into every piece. As a young adult he took on the craft himself and in late 2017 he finally decided to take the hobby to the next level and start marketing his work, creating a business making custom pieces. Today Jacob and are are going to discuss his personal designs as well as  his experience as being a licensed artist for the Charley Harper Studio, his take on inside angle cuts and his future of designing official Charley Harper patterns.
Let's get into it...

Hello and welcome back! Today on Cracked with Chevonne Ariss I'm joined by Lindsey Wonder. She is a Tucson, AZ based tattooer, stained glass artist, painter and illustrator. Lindsey received her BFA from The School of Visual Arts in NYC. She specializes in stained glass tail lights she makes custom for vintage cars, trucks and vans. Today we're going to chat about the parallels between stained glass and tattooing, her upcoming vending at Van Nationals, and different ways we all should tweak the way we approach waitlists to keep everyone honest! Let's get into it...

To see more of Lindsey's work her instagram is @Lindseywonder and her website is lindseywonder.com. 

 For the Patreon page Lindsey is gifting one of her sets of stained glass dice to hang in your rearview mirror. They measure about 3.5” x 2”, so they’re really the perfect size, not too big like classic fuzzy dice, not too small, and I’m speaking from experience because mine are hanging in my truck as we speak and I love them so much!

Welcome back! It's Season 4 of Cracked! Today to kick it off I'm joined by Brooklyn based glass artist Sacha Carlos-Raps! She is a Filipina immigrant and not only makes beautiful glass work full of bright colors but also does printmaking and illustrations. Her art practice is "her rebellious demonstration against the good immigrant binary and the post-diasporic expectations of “first gens” Her work is memoriric totems that embraces the kaleidoscopic inner self, an ode to the abode and the absurd."
Today we talk glasswork of course but we're also going to talk about markets, candles, get into the making of her zine, her Oaxacan residency and then we wind it back down with some fun Phillipino facts.
Let's get into it...
Join me as I crack it all wide open!
To see more of Sacha's work, her instagram is @sacharaps and her website is sacharaps.com. For the Cracked Patreon members Sacha is gifting one of her super popular shrimp sun catchers.  I’ll be doing a raffle for that 12 days after the release of this episode. She’s also offering a $20 discount code to  the rest of the Cracked Patreon members and remember Sasha sells much more on her website other than glass pieces. I just ordered myself some an array of her gift cards and they’re so cute!

WOWOWOW welcome to 2023! 

 Shout out to all my hobbyists listening, this episode is for you because not all artists need to sell what they make and honestly the hobbyists make up the majority of my listeners so I was stoked to have that conversation represented here too. 

Sara Strickler is today’s guest and she is from Virginia, but currently lives on a small island called Alameda in the Bay Area and works by day as a designer for Nest. In her free time she’s an incredible stained glass artist. She’s actually one of the many great talents coming out of Dan Grimaldi’s shop in San Francisco called Cradle of the Sun. 

Truth be told I had a really hard time naming this episode because we cover everything from her love and appreciation for Cup Noodle, the meaning of being a hobbyist and even Miss Piggie at a rave in Berlin in 1992. Or as a yogi cult guru. Wait what? You’ll have to keep listening to find out what I mean…

Hello and welcome back to Cracked with Chevonne Ariss!

Today’s very sweet and lovely guest is Nik Sanders of Hepzibar Button. Her botanical Scandinavian inspired leaded glass work also incorporates very detailed glass painting. Like many of us, stained glass is something she came too after having children and a whole other long career. Before she was a full time glass artist, for over fifteen years she was a Primary School Teacher. Now Nic has been doing glass for over ten years now with no signs of slowing down anytime soon. 

Nik’s work is personally one of my favorites - definitely on my top 10 list - and I’m so glad I got to meet the sweet woman behind the glass. 

Let's get into it :)

For our Cracked Patreon page members, Nik is giving away one of her Painted bird sun catchers in a surprise color! It’s going to look so gorgeous hanging in someone’s window and I’ll be doing a drawing for that piece on my instagram on January 8th, 2023. After I do these drawings I always reach out to the winner personally as well to let them know, so don’t worry if you miss it but if you remember to, I would turn on your notifications for my instagram stories! @runaglassworks

Hello all and welcome back to Cracked with Chevonne Ariss!
Today’s guest for episode 35 is Los Angeles artist Timo Fahler. 
Timo uses plaster, ceramics, steel, wood, and found objects to construct highly visual and culturally significant works. Combining formal elements of sculpture with references to his heritage, Fahler’s work explores ideas of use and reuse through casting and manipulating found objects and combining them with relics that relate to personal experiences. His restructuring of objects in a manner that indicates function and meaning while remaining abstract in form, invokes a bricoleurian practice, representative of a multi-cultural aesthetic. 
Alright let’s get into it with Timo…

Hello friends and welcome back to Cracked with Chevonne Ariss! Now I’ve got my eyes on a lot of glass artists and I’ve seen a lot of really cool ideas and unique projects but it’s rare that I find an artist who every time I check in on their social media and they can surprise me with something different. Kerbi Urbanowski is her name, and if that sounds familiar it’s because she was nominated by Jaclyn Miller of Assembly Glassworks and she just finished up a joint show with Ben Houtkamp of Ben’s Website. They’re team Kerbi, I’m team Kerbi and after you hear today’s episode you’ll be team Kerbi too!
All right let’s get into it…
Join me as I crack it all wide open!
To see more of Kerbi’s work, her instagram is @kerbi_kerbi and her website is kerbiurbanowski.com.
For the Cracked Patreon page members Kerbi has made a studio playlist that I’ve had access to for a few weeks and it is bringing so much happiness to my workspace and I know it’ll do the same for yours! The link to that was posted there @ patreon.com/runaglassworks today, and she’s also gifting one of her Lil Rita soap dishes to one lucky member. I’ll be doing a drawing for that in my instagram stories on Dec 25th 2022. That’s 12 days after this episode is released which is when I have been doing all my drawings this season and this time it landed on Christmas!

Today I’m speaking with Lauren Puckett. She’s an artist with an adventurous spirit and a love of flying airplanes. She just recently returned to the states from the University of Edinburgh in Scotland where she was working on her PhD in glass and now, she’s currently in a residency at the McColl Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. The sky’s the limit for this artist and pilot, but where she’s currently gaining altitude is by intertwining feminine studies with glass in an unexpected and seamless way. Her pieces examine subculture, stereotypes and representation with contemporary power structures. Her work is powerful and thought provoking, and creates the start of conversations that need to be had.
Everything she’s doing will make a lasting impression, her efforts to modernize our traditional practice with her C&C plasma framing system included. It’s the spark to a flame that may make the future of stained glass more safe and therefore more accessible. A lover of open knowledge, she shares today with us her process and her journey of growing and evolving along side her work.

 In episode 21, we get to take a peek into the mind and studio of Tyler Kimball, cover artist for the SGQ's most recent summer issue and owner of Monarch Glass. Born and raised in Kansas City, Tyler has gone to all lengths to bring great glass art to the Kansas City area as well as creating installation art and gift glass alike for places and people around the globe. He had worked in almost 60 different studios through residencies, visiting artist stints, and contracted hire before building up Monarch Glass Studio. His passion for working in glass has led him down many different avenues over the years and his favorite work is always just around the next turn. However, Tyler is on our radar here at Cracked as this industry’s leader with his much coveted glass rondels and we're all waiting with bated breath to see and get our hands on his latest venture... bespoke flat sheet glass. Hushed and hopeful whispers of this possibility have spread like wildfire across the land of glass makers everywhere. Is this thrilling Tyler Kimball rumor true? Keep listening to find out! 

All right let’s do this!! Join me as I crack it all wide open!

Today on Ep 17. of Cracked I’m joined by Sheila Szilagyi Noseworthy! This part glass artist, part glass engineer  and glass architect recently appeared as a competitor on the very first stained glass competition show ever on Discovery Plus, The Meet Your Maker Showdown. From glass clutches, to surfboards, to wearable shoes to bridal bouquets, this artist knows no glass ceiling for what’s possible to create. Today we discuss her experience on the show and THERE ARE SPOILERS so if you don’t want to know who wins yet put this episode on hold. We’ll also talk about favorite self care practices, her recent discovery and love of the cosplay world, and the surprising place she’s finding most of the tools and supplies for her glass and mosaic art. Hint: There’s one in your town!

Ep. 14 - As an artist, there’s so much mystery around copyright and trademarking your designs and it can all feel very overwhelming, so today I’m talking to a lawyer who specializes in exactly this. Her name is Nicole Swartz and she’s going to clear up some of the misconceptions out there and answer your questions. I won’t be making a habit of having guests that aren’t stained glass artists but I really am seeing and hearing this topic everywhere lately and so this episode is a TIME OUT, everyone set down your tools, and LISTEN.  

In fact, if you only listen to only 1 episode of Cracked, THIS SHOULD BE THE ONE. I also encourage you to forward this episode to any of your maker friends who don’t do glass because 99% of this information is applicable to their work as well. 

My wish for each and every one of you is that you never find yourself in a copyright pickle, and after hearing this episode you will have some tools to avoid the headache of a design fight. I actually intended to release this episode much later in the season but after recording it I decided it’s just too valuable to keep to myself, I needed to release it as soon as possible. 

So without further ado...

Today in episode 12 I’m joined by Megan McElfresh, she’s a third generation stained glass artist, and the wizard behind the curtain aka the executive director of the Stained Glass Association of America. Building a community and connecting people within this niche glass world is something I’m passionate about and a huge reason for starting this podcast. In Megan I found a kindred spirit in those efforts amongst others.
From her vantage point she sees us all, from the part time hobbyist to the major studios. BTW did you know that all those huge studios need the small makers to keep this industry alive? It’s true, and she’s going to explain to us why! The SGAA also has a very cool history of protecting the stained glass industry here in the states, and I think this falls into the category of things we should really know, so Megan is here to enlighten us on that too. 
She’s also an advocate for safety in the studio and I bet something she says today is something that you didn’t think of doing or you didn’t realize you needed and it could change your life! For real. It did mine. I thought I was being pretty careful and turns out there were some easy -  but major - improvements I needed to make in the studio to protect myself better. 

Besides being a walking Encyclopedia Britannica Megan is also funny, sweet, and someone I’m now proud to call a friend. Keep listening and you’ll see why…

Join me as I crack it all wide open!
