ARTIST STATEMENT

I have been working with glass for over 15 years. For me, fused glass is a medium that provides an inexhaustible source of creative possibilities through the combination of colors, textures and techniques. The translucent nature of glass acts as a host for an infinite palette of colors. Every day light-play can enhance a finished piece simply by adding an ethereal, glistening beauty that is not seen in other mediums.

My designs are inspired by patterns and colors and objects that I see around me every day. Playfulness and whimsy are always a subtext in my work whether I make jewelry, decorative dishes or personalized clocks.

Although I do not have an online store, payments through PayPal are always welcome. My art work can also be seen on display at the Artistic Portland Gallery at 4110 NE Fremont Street, Portland, Oregon.
