The body of my artwork is created by a combination of traditional glass blowing techniques and my attraction to intense color. I use the transparency of glass to transmit and reflect light through the layers of color to increase the surface intensity while retaining the smooth glossy nature of blown glass.

Glass is a complex material, unlike all other medias. It can be transformed to look like stone, wood, clay, metal, and many other endless possibilities. It is the only material that is truly transparent. It’s chameleon like nature is what attracted me to the medium and manipulating it keeps me entranced with it.
