Artist's Statement:
"Over the past 40 years I have worked in many mediums: oil, watercolor, ceramics, textile design, interior design, and jewelry, only discovering glass 9 years ago. As an artist, my work is most inspired by nature. The way light reflects and focuses our interest complicates the design. Never before have I been so enamored with a medium. Glass can be incredibly strong, or very fragile, simple or ornate, transparent or opaque, functional or not...it's limitless. To be able to take a sheet of glass and form it into something another person thinks is beautiful or interesting is wonderful. It's as simple as that."
