- Mini Blowpipes and Flameworking Amphora Pendant - I had the honor of meeting Stevi Belle while she was doing a workshop at A Touch of Glass in Asheville NC. She finds her inspiration in glass from contemporary and ancient sources, as well as nature. Color and texture are inspired by nature; form is from the ancient glass. Stevi has always done female forms inspired by fertility figures.
