Truckin' Home with Colleen Newcomb of Wild Light Glassworks
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
03/29/22 • 71 min
Today I’m joined by Colleen Newcomb, the one woman show behind Wildlight Glassworks.
She was born, raised and joins us from the bluegrass region of Kentucky. Colleen’s worked in many different mediums, but in 2016 she found herself moving away from the world of sign making and street art and into the world of glass. She’s a self taught artist and most of her the inspiration for her work comes from her love of the natural world and music - especially the Grateful Dead (so you know I had to put her on the spot with a Dead Head quiz!) We also chat about foil size preferences, her favorite glass hack (and my favorite so far ever shared on Cracked) and a fun way to collaborate with other glass artists.
Join me as I crack it all wide open!
To see more of Colleen's work, her instagram is @wildlight.glassworks

Be Safe, Have Fun, Do Excellent Work with Ariana Makau of Nzilani Glass
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
01/10/23 • 117 min
Today’s guest is Ariana Makau of Nzilani Glass. She is the 2nd person in the world – and the first woman – to receive a Master’s Degree in Stained Glass Conservation from the Royal College of Art in London. Equally comfortable on a job site, at a board meeting or in a museum, Makau has over 25 years of experience with art and architectural preservation. She is a Board Member and Health and Safety Chair of the SGAA and is a Fellow of AIC. Before Nzilani, she worked at the J. Paul Getty Museum in LA, London’s V&A Museum, and the NY Metropolitan Museum of Art. Approachable and non-judgmental, Ariana enjoys sharing her professional experience in classroom and public talks.
I could have spoken to Ariana for 2 more hrs and still only scratched the surface of her extensive experience and knowledge of glass conservation and preservation. Asbestos testing /Respirator fit tests-
Ariana recommends you do a local search with the key words "asbestos material testing company" and "respirator fit tests". In some cases, people might be able to get the latter sourced through a museum. Local paint companies sometimes teach one day lead certification classes as well.
"Nzilani is hoping to roll out hosting contracted respirator fit and BLL testing next year as a service to local artists. I encourage individual artists to network and do the same in their areas. Joining together can reduce costs, build community and empower folks to be accountable to their own health and well-being."

Ghosties and Ghoulies with Margo Marquette
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
04/19/22 • 81 min
Can you even hear the words “copper foil overlay" and not know who Margo Marquette is? I don’t think it’s possible! Usually when I mention her name it’s met with a sharp inhale and some head shaking while words are searched for to express shock at the insane detail she’s able to create. Her work reminds me a little bit of of shadow puppets, a lot of fables and folklore, and all timeless enchanted storytelling.
While speaking with Margo I was surprised and struck by how humble she is, and how she’s moved through our beloved craft with such ingenuity and resourcefulness. Keep listening and you’ll see what I mean...

LA Story with David Judson of Judson Studios
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
04/26/22 • 110 min
In 1897, The Judson Studios was established in Los Angeles by the painter and professor William Lees Judson and his three sons. Helmed by Walter Horace, the eldest son and a stained glass expert, the Studios thrived from the start, beautifying the booming metropolis with works that represented the best in traditional and modern design. Today, Judson is the oldest family-run stained glass studio in America, still proudly offering an exquisite, handcrafted product made by local artisans, and continuing to serve the community that has sustained us through the decades.
Today I’m speaking with David Judson.
He’s been working hard to grow and stretch his family business into exciting new territories and has recently released Judson: Innovation in Stained Glass , a book to document the nearly 125-year history of Judson Studios. We're going to chat about that, as well as the power of collaboration, current and future projects happening at Judson and the unique impact and legacy David would like to leave with the industry.
Join me as I crack it all wide open!
To see more of the work coming out of Judson Studios, their instagram is @judsonstudios and their website is judsonstudios.com.

Finding The Highs In Lows with Social Media Maven & Newly Minted Author Kara Bussey of Glimpse Glass
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
11/02/21 • 58 min
In ep. 09 I'm joined by Kara Bussey of Glimpse Glass. The queen of floral wreaths, botanical moons and wearable stained glass crowns, she's a natural communicator from her decade working in communications. But now she’s now got her focus on communicating “how to” in her new book, stained glass for beginners. She’s also gone viral multiple times with stained glass videos - so we spend a lot of time chatting about what works for engagement in her posts and what doesn’t. But putting yourself out there in any way, whether it's a book, social media post or in my case, a podcast, can bring about anxiety and fear of judgement, and Kara very honestly shares with us her experience with that and where she is now on her journey of figuring it all out.
Join me as I crack it all wide open!

Conservation of Glass and Health with Derek Hunt
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
11/08/22 • 101 min
Hello and welcome back to Cracked SEASON 3.
To kick this season off I’m joined by Derek Hunt. He does it all...
Not only reputable and respected conservation work, but also beautiful and thoughtful new glass work for public buildings, schools, theaters, restaurants, libraries and hospitals. His work can be seen through out the United Kingdom and beyond. He's also one of the warmest people I've had the honor of interviewing and another example of someone who is impressively generous with his extensive knowledge of all things glass. As you'll hear him explain in our chat today, like many, the pandemic forced him to expand professionally and for him that meant taking on the challenge of making quality content for his social media channels, Especially youtube. There he share's free online tutorials, inspirational videos and artist interviews.
With some editing magic done by Derek this interview will also be viewable on Derek’s as well as my YouTube channel and a link to watch that is in this episode’s show notes.
When I put the call out on instagram for questions for Derek, listener @glassyem responded “No questions but I think I’m most excited for this episode release! I’m a Derek Superfan!” Em I couldn’t agree more. So let's get into it.
Join me, as I crack it all wide open...
To see more of Derek's work, his instagram is @derekhuntartist and his website is limelightstudios.co.uk

For The Love of Portraits with Lauren Puckett of Glass Aeroplane
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
04/05/22 • 98 min
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.
Join me as I crack it all wide open!

From Bali with Love, Lena Zaycman
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
04/12/22 • 92 min
Today I’m joined by stained glass designer & maker Lena Zaycman who is based in St. Petersburg, Russia. After working on large scale stained glass installations alongside her sister, she continued her practice refining her own style, where she’s focused on the idea of hassle-free installation by making absolutely independent objects that can easily be displayed anywhere. She’s created a fantastical line of little creatures called Shelly Creatures and Zoobastics which are not only whimsical and fun but also carry great personal healing work and meaning. Her Buddy line and Bali line is equally sentimental. Today we’re going to dive into her different collections and explore what their meaning is to Lena, we’ll also discuss healthy balances with social media and what some of the different products and tools are that she’s using in Russia.
Join me as I crack it all wide open!

Protect ya neck! Trademark and Copyright Q&A with Nicole Swartz of Sprout Law
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
12/07/21 • 52 min
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...

One Bad Eddie! Navigating A Larger Commission with Ted Ellison
Cracked with Chevonne Ariss
05/10/22 • 108 min
As you know, at the end of all my episode’s I always ask my guest what their 5-10 year goals are. It’s been interesting...majority of the time, artists that are known for making smaller pieces say they would like to make larger pieces and get into more installation work and artists that make larger pieces say they would like to come back to making the smaller pieces they started with. Like many of you I usually make smaller pieces that don’t require much more than some sturdy hooks to install. But I too have been wanting to grow and expand into doing something bigger.
That opportunity came! I just finished my first commercial installation and as I made my way through the project there were a lot of steps that were new to me. I was very lucky to have a mentor helping me through the process. A very talented and experienced artist, Ted Ellison from Theodore Ellison Designs, based in Oakland. His first episode of Cracked was released October 5th 2021, episode 5, Season 1.
I asked Ted if he would be open to come back on with me and co-host an episode recapping my experience and together we could pass on the advice and guidance he had given me.
Join us as we crack it all wide open!
To see more of Ted's work, his instagram is @theodoreellisondesigns and mine is @runaglassworks.
