I am a self-taught stained glass artist, who lived in Southeast Alaska, surrounded by the Tongass Rainforest for over twenty years. My husband, Scott, and I owned and operated a commercial salmon troller/halibut longliner while living a remote island lifestyle. This lifestyle inspired a deep appreciation and love for raw wilderness, the sea, and the natural beauty of the land.
While incorporating natural and found objects into my work, I interpret the images and textures of the ecosystem with the use of light, color and form. I don't attempt to duplicate a landscape; rather I try to convey how I felt within that particular landscape. The exhilaration of motion, or serene solitude....a respite.
Since moving to Brandon in 2001, the pastoral beauty of Vermont continues to delight and inspire me. My glasswork can be seen at the Brandon Artist Guild, where I am a member.
You can also find my glass pieces at Antiques By the Falls, (The InsideScoop) located in Brandon, Vt., Arts & Antiques on Center in Rutland, Vermont and Depot Street Art Gallery in Ludlow, Vermont. My attic studio is open and window shopping is encouraged. Please call to visit.
