Short video on how the artist defines art and craft.:

TRANSCRIPT:
The question about this distinction between art and craft is pretty overblown. I think they're so close to each other. I think if you learn your craft well enough: learn how to use your tools, learn how to do your soldering in jewelry, and learn how to set the stones, learn how to do it well and clean, you perfect your craft. And then you start putting your voice into it, your line and your heart. Put that into it and hopefully you'll get a sense of poetry into your piece and someone else will pick up on that, and they'll feel your sense? in it. That's when they're sensing the art. They're just assuming the craft has been done well, which it should be. So, they kind of melt together like that. Art is the voice; craft is necessary to learn to do the art well. You have to know your medium well enough to express your heart to make art.

  • Today I'm going to talk to you about the art of stained glass which might be different from buying a pattern book and cutting out a window and the craft of stained glass. Where does that line get crossed? When you go over that point? Well it's a very subjective question and the best way I can answer is to say that, if you are to the level of doing your craft; that you can use your own imagination and think about what you would like to see in an opening that just cries for stained glass and you create your own design, your own pattern and you realize the importance of the value of different types of glass and you use your glass as your palette, you have just crossed that line.
