"A GOOD LIVING" Pretty darn huge distinction, from not buying a nice car or chips and dip on the weekend, to not having a roof over your head and essentially saying ggwp to life.
In life's 'imaginary' race, we somewhere forget that good living is all about great life... I found peace and serenity by just watching this man work and listening to him... 🙏🏼thankyou so much for bringing this vid up.. I am from India and not a frequent traveler but one thing I know - people are treasure.. Mr. Mike Tonder you are a treasure... thankyou so much for sharing..
"I dont know if I can make a good living, but I can make a darn good life." what a wonderful man, those are some wise words of wisdom, happiness should always come before money
I love glass. There is something pure about its translucent look. Nothing to hide. Always thought that if heaven was real it would be like glass. I love the fact that money isn't the focus for his work it's the love and pleasure. Thank you for sharing this video😌
Greetings, Mike, from Las Cruces, New Mexico! We visited your home studio many moons ago and ended up buying two wonderful pieces. We still treasure them, and they are even lovelier in the bright sunlight of NM. Folks here wonder how they are done - now we can show them your videos. John & Verne
"i don't know if i can make a living, but i know i can make a darn good life." this is one of the best quotes i've ever heard and i go by this now that i think about it i love the thought of acting but my mom says i would need a side job so i can make enough money but to me it doesn't matter i've always cared about the fun in acting and how you can teach people with this amazing power in the end all i want and to give is a little fun
Mike Tonder does awesome work! The best way to find out more about him & the glass he uses is to visit his website: Blueskiesglaswork.com. Thanks for the kind comments!
never seen glass look so soft and sumptuous . amazing . and what a genuine guy .he reminds me of Bob Ross..
Thank you.
There is this calmness about this guy, and it is reflected in his art work.
Thank you.
"i don't know if i can make a living, but i know i can make a darn good life."
That's quite the warning to young artists to say the least.
broke but die smiling
"everything you want" except food and a roof.
artist need to hype themselves to create value.. they need to standout! everything is just hype
"Can"t make a good living but can make a great life" well said! Great work by the way!

Ah but you can
Just 'add a zero'

This quote personifies my impression of him ....don't know if I can make a good living but I can make a darn good life...impressive

"i don't know if i can make a living, but i know i can make a darn good life."
this is one of the best quotes i've ever heard
and i go by this now that i think about it
i love the thought of acting but my mom says i would need a side job so i can make enough money
but to me it doesn't matter
i've always cared about the fun in acting and how you can teach people with this amazing power
in the end all i want and to give is a little fun
Stunningly beautiful!!
What a great video! Interesting, calming and inspiring. Thank you I really enjoyed this. 😀👍
Wow!!! What a great talent...keep it up Mike.

"Once you have your skills and you've bought your tools there's always something you can do." I like that.
Hats off to you sir, keep it up with the good work. You are indeed a great artist as you have talents & creativity & I like that.
Sir that's an brilliant piece of work..!! keep it going
Very impressive statement: "once you have your skills and you got your tools, there is allways something you can do"
The softness in his voice. Damn.
Beautiful work! Thank you for sharing this.
I love his work! =D It's so beautiful!
most pieces are really accidents of chance. the rest are experience from accidents. these are beautiful. nice work.
Any artist knows your lucky to make enough to carry on.....and feed one's self....:( good work.....looks great.....
Thank you.
that's incredible
Enjoyed watching your creativity! I'm so envious of this. Wish I had the resources to pursue this medium. God Bless!
Mike, dude, you are an amazing artist, I’m getting on your website after this tutorial. Fantastic stuff
Just fantastic. He's so talented.
Thank you.
TY used to do leaded stain glass, miss my teacher and love, may do a piece in honor someday.
Oh be still my heart!!!! Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!! Good life...
Here's to a good life🍻

That's a really interesting medium. Everyone has seen a million wood carvings chiseled out but very unique to use glass.

You should try to add led lighting build in your glass creations, that would be even more awsome. Beautiful work though!!!
Did you use a kiln to fuse the glass pieces to make one piece? What a cool process! What an awesome art form. Thanks for sharing!
Muy liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiindo!
amazing
Really awesome work man, and you are interesting to listen to! Btw... who the "h.ll" marked the thumbs down button?
