Music
nearly any type of music if it's done well. I especially like older folksingers, blugrass, or anything with lots of hand drums. Some of my favorite artists are bob dylan, the grateful dead, katsuk, arrested development, 2pac, janis,leadbelly, woody guthrie, pete seeger, ween, bone thugz, johnny cash, velvet underground, leonard cohen, violent femmes, bob marley, robert hunter, john denver, buju banton, willie nelson, cake....this is the short list; in truth, I have always been a music lover from a very young age and to list them all would be impossible!
Movies
Make me laugh!...Team America: World Police, The Big Lebowski, Bad Santa, Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, Run Ronnie Run
Television

About me: My husband and I are glassblowers (more specifically, lampworkers) currently living in Fort Collins, CO. Skye has been working with borosilicate glass since 2001, and I started working with glass on my own torch in 2003.
We are both originally from Ohio, but our paths first crossed here in the beautiful state of Colorado. We are always looking to meet artists in any media. Any serious glassblowers passing through Fort Collins should give us a shout. We always love to share knowledge and bounce around ideas. We all want to make the world a better place; glass art is our chosen method of reaching people.
Please check out our gallery and full body of art at www.glassantixx.com or www.glasspipes.org/SkyePerryNorton Also, see our About Us page www.glassantixx.com/aboutus.html to hear more of our story
