Spark the Creative Flame is a resource that strives to inform, inspire, and motivate all who work in craft and wish to improve the creative expression of their work. While the book features flameworked glass and artisans who do this work, the insights and recommendations presented transcend material and speak to broader issues relevant to all creative craftspeople. The book is made up of three parts.

Section two presents a retrospective on the 50-year career of internationally acclaimed artist Paul J. Stankard. The third provides overviews of the careers of twelve contemporary glass artists.
