I have been working with glass as an art medium for more than 20 years and am blessed to have won some prestigious recognition. Although I have become proficient in all forms of art glass, kiln-formed glass has become my medium of choice. It\u2019s so much fun, it\u2019s like playing and creating every day!<\/span><\/p>\n

I made my first mask early in my training and since then almost every piece of glass art I make becomes a mask. Each has its own style and personality. It was so rewarding to make my first mask it actually transformed my life. Working with glass has always been therapeutic for me but fused glass is especially inspiring because the finished product stays a surprise until the kiln is cool enough to open \u2013 sometimes this can be more than a week!. To this day, I am still filled with happiness as each new mask is revealed. Sometimes the finished product is so funny I start to laugh. Sometimes the finished product is so majestic; I can\u2019t believe I could have made it! <\/span><\/p>\n

Before the glass process begins, I make plaster molds using people\u2019s actual faces. After the mold is made and brushed with kiln wash, I use various colors and textures of glass to gain perspective and depth with each firing. Some have 5 or more layers which means they have been fired in the kiln more than 5 times with each firing taking at least 24 hours. On the final firing I place the plaster mold into the kiln and balance the flat glass on top of the mold. In an exact firing schedule, the glass then melts over the plaster mold and becomes three dimensional.<\/span><\/p>\n

When someone sees one of my art pieces I want them to feel the actual spirit of each form. I believe we are all kindred spirits, looking for ways to compliment and complete ourselves. I believe we are also looking for connections \u2013 ways to communicate with other human beings. I feel my masks open a doorway for this process because they all have unique features, names and personalities.\u00a0 I am also creating new glass forms and continue to learn new techniquess.

I am currently living in Utah and showing with the Glass Art Guild of Utah and at the Women-Owned Small Business Collective Market in Salt Lake City\u2019s Gateway district.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n
