Painting With Glass...

"When I was young my 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 art I create, always trying to push the boundaries. 

Like numerous artists, I’ve dabbled in painting, pottery and many other mediums.  I have found mosaics, combining my artistic experiences and have been told, I’m 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 in rainbow order."
