I have been a glass artist since 2003. While I have always loved art in all it’s forms, at the first moment I worked with molten glass I knew I was hooked.
Every time I turn on a torch, I learn something new. Glass is a material that can be very sensitive to its surroundings; it will behave differently depending on the amount of heat applied, the fuel used, even the ambient temperature on a given day! It is this endless variety that I find so fascinating, and many days this very variety will lead me down a new path to a color or shape I had never thought to try before. Lately I have begun to explore the creation of glass chainmail jewelry using borosilicate glass. Each link is hand formed in the flame and is attached to the larger piece. The entire piece is then kiln annealed for strength and durability.
