Glass Artist

Welcome to my site where I bring my love for glass art to life.

 

My journey began when I discovered stained glass while in college studying graphic design. Once I made my first stained glass window I immediately knew what I wanted to do. I was astonished at how beautiful the glass became when light shined through the piece. Glass sets a mood changing continuously throughout the day depending on light exposure.

I spent several years making stained glass and sand carved glass panels for residential and commercial spaces while living in Northern California. My current work has shifted from traditional stained glass windows to fused glass using fine glass powders, glass stringers, sheet glass and heat to create unique designs and shapes. By using various techniques, these vibrant pieces are organic in shape with intricate patterns inspired by nature.

​

I was born in 1964 to an Italian father, a pianist and Canadian mother, a photographer. Growing up in the United States with my brother, we spent our summers in British Columbia where both parents families lived.    

My husband Gary and I live in beautiful Turner Valley, Alberta.
