Artist Statement:
"As a child, do you remember
the joy of opening a new box
of Crayolas? I certainly do.
I loved their fragrance and
the way the beautiful colors
vibrated, line up row by row.
I could hardly wait to use
'Magenta' or Periwinkle Blue.
Perhaps those early memories
influenced my decision to
study art.

Glass is my canvas. I apply
high fire enamels to create
non-objective or abstracted
opaque paintings. I fire the
work multiple times in a kiln
before it is completed.

I am a studio artist living in
Tallahassee, FL. I exhibited
my paintings and drawings for
many years. In a radical
departure, I decided to study
glass fusing. I initially
worked in traditional
kiln-forming glass techniques.
However, I missed painting
and the expressive experience
it provided. In 2003, I
discovered high fire
(paint-like) glass enamels and
began painting again. I enjoy
the physical act of painting
and the capricious nature of
kiln-fired glass is
intriguing.

I begin a painting by applying
the paint, or enamel, using a
variety of painting
implements. Sometimes I
inscribe thoughts and ideas in
the paint, knowing that when
the work is fired, the enamels
will flow and obscure...
