"Glass offers colors, depth, translucence and fluidity that speak to me and help me speak to others. I have worked with glass since 2001 creating pieces with a balanced asymmetry that are meant to capture both the eye and the heart. Using stained glass or fused glass techniques, I seek to compose pieces that invite to viewer to eternally look deeper into each free-form, unrepeatable creation. Since moving to Western North Carolina in 2018, the mountains have provided unsurpassed inspiration, shaping my work to capture mountainous views in glass and metal. These new pieces add an additional facet to my portfolio of distinctively designed crosses of glass and gemstones along with other organic
artisan works."

“Having been raised in New Orleans, I developed a love for art in all of its forms. Because of that love, I owned and operated a retail gallery of artisan-made items. Being surrounded daily by all things artisan-made, there was an apparent energy that I and others noticed in the space; an energy that I would explain as the artists’ soul being felt. As the years passed, my desire to pursue and share that same energy through my own art grew stronger.”

Each year at the Chimneyville Crafts Festival, these were the first to go.

Each cross is made by using copper foil stained glass techniques to combine agate slices into a cross in our studio in the Western North Carolina mountains. No two are alike. Every year when I participated as a juried artist in the Chimneyville Craftsmens Guild Festival in December, these were the
