Artist Statement:
The visual atmospheres I
create in glass grant the
viewer the opportunity to
discover the environments I
explore. I grew up making
pottery and glass art with my
mother, a teacher of the fired
arts. I lived in a hospital
for the better part of my
first six years of life.
Being forbidden from living a
normal childhood playing
outside and running around was
not sad for me because I
played through discovering my
artistic self. By the time I
was in high school being asked
what my goal in life is I
simply stated my goal was to
live on vacation the rest of
my life. I explore life and
express the vacation
atmosphere I live through my
glass.
I am not looking for fame or
glory in the art I create. I
am looking to let my creations
encourage others to embrace
our creative world and to look
upon my work and know the
imagery comes from a personal
experience of mine. When I
travel I take very few
pictures. I prefer to feel the
atmosphere. To me, it is that
translation that captures the
essence of my adventures. ...
