Painting With Glass...
"When I was youngmy crayons were in rainbow order.It felt good.
For as long as I can remember art has always been part of my life.
I strive to put emotion and passion in every piece of artI create, always trying to push the boundaries.
Like numerous artists, Ive dabbled in painting, pottery and many other mediums. I have found mosaics, combining my artistic experiences and have been told,Im painting with glass.
My work is one-of-a-kind, transporting one of the oldest artist mediums to present day.When I work with mosaic and the array of colors and textures, I sense a harmony and a familiarity from my youth.
Yes, my glass is inrainbow order."
