Today on Cracked I’m joined by Ashley Costa. She's the Portland OR artist behind Caustic Glassworks. A stencil artist for 10+ years, she decided to apply her sharp lines and design work to the practice of stained glass in 2017 and has been dedicated to the craft ever since. An avid craft fair and market seller, Costa and I chat about tips and tricks she’s learned through her experience there, she also shares her experience growing up in the Portland punk scene and our mutual experience of having small children during the pandemic.
Let's get into it...
Join me as I crack it all wide open!
To see more of Costa's work, her instagram is @caustic_glassworks and her website is causticglassworks.com. For the Cracked Patreon page, Costa is gifting one of her stained glass Lick pieces along with a pin and sticker to a lucky Patreon member. I’ll be doing a drawing for that 12 days after this episode is released!
