Artist Statement for Heather Michelson

My discovery of beads opened up a whole new world for me. It allowed me to study the history of the peoples and cultures relating to each bead and beading technique and design. How could one not grow studying such a history.
Along the way came the knowledge of how to strive for balance and harmony and peace.
Beads are a wonderful medium for translating - an image, an idea, a feeling. They can be used with other beautiful mediums for creating -- vibrant threads, textured cloth and yarns, other glass pieces -- to say nothing of their portability!
I love teaching others about beads - both the history and wonderful designs and techniques, but I think I am most centered and peaceful when I am able to create a piece that allows others to see the beauty in something I have seen or felt.
Now, when I see something beautiful - a lava flow, a waterfall, or a sunset - I want to set it to beads!
I have started fusing glass to make my own beads and it is amazing what the colors and different textures can create! The most amazing creations emerge from the kiln - especially when a wonderful glass like dichroic is mixed with others.
