- "Ascension" by Mark Peiser, 1987 - "For me, technique is not cheap -- it's imperative," asserts Mark Peiser. This contrasts with the comment made by Harvey Littleton, the founder of the studio glass movement, that, "Technique is cheap." Peiser creates innovative technical processes that express his ideas. His Innerspace Series (1983-1994) explores how to compose a solid three dimensional image within a mass of a different color.

- "Moonlit Forest" by Mark Peiser, 1977 - Mark Peiser graduated with a design degree from the Illinois Institute of Technology in 1961, but after attending Penland School in North Carolina during the summer of 1967 he found his true passion: glass. Peiser experimented with new techniques to bring his ideas to life. Glass canes melted by flame were used to "draw" on molten glass to create this piece.

- "Blue Opal Flowers" by Mark Peiser, 1971 - Mark Peiser was nearly thirty years old when he visited Penland School in 1967 to learn glassblowing. After three days at the School, he found that he wanted to pursue glass seriously and requested to apply for a position as an artist in residence. The director appointed him to the position for the winter with little explanation after they had a casual conversation. <em>Blue Opal Flowers</em> is from the earliest phase of Peiser's work.
