Kevin made his first Grateful Dead pendant in 1995, shortly after Jerry Garcia died, as a tribute to Jerry. He has since innovated many techniques showcased in his Dead themed work such as murrini cane making and placing opals in borosilicate glass. His Dead pieces are filled with symbolism every Dead Head will understand. He was always inspired and driven by the love for the music and has never produced mass quantities of any of his pieces. In fact he has taken a hiatus to avoid the over saturation and commercialization found in the market today. But, he is confident he will again make new pieces as the spirit moves him........GDF.......stay tuned.
