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 Cracked Patreon page members Derek is offering a link to a Spotify music playlist he made to listen to while you work!

One Bad Eddie! Navigating A Larger Commission with Ted Ellison
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.

Soft Shapes is all about P L A Y. Kelsie chooses colors that are fun, clever, and exciting to create shapes that remind us of the sweet and simple pleasures.
She’s wise beyond her years, and one of my favorites guests to date!

She’s also generously gifting one of those fused flatware sets we spoke about to a lucky Patreon member. I’ll be doing a drawing for that on instagram in my stories on Sunday November 27th, 2022 and messaging the winner directly as well. That’s 12 days after the release of this episode.
