- ...... and that's just to name a few.... Let's Start the Conversation!
BUILDING STRONGER CONNECTIONS TO THE ARTS FOR ALL!
WHY ME? WELL, YOU SEE, I'VE BEEN BLESSED AND HAVE ENJOYED BEING INVOLVED WITH THE ARTS ON SO MANY LEVELS AND IN SO MANY DIFFERENT ROLES... I'VE BEEN INVOLVED WITH THE ARTS AS AN ARTIST, AN ART EDUCATOR, AN ART MUSEUM ADMINISTRATOR, AN ART CURATOR, AN ARTS HISTORIAN AND THEN BACK AGAIN.
Do I look familiar?
***
It's understandable if I seem familiar because it's possible that you've seen me at any number of public art venues... I frequent art galleries, arts fundraising events, and of course, art exhibitions.
***
Perhaps you saw me wandering through one of my favorite haunts...
an art museum, of course!
***
Maybe you recognize me from when I was giving tours or talking about art with learners of all ages?
***
I may have even been your instructor on a college campus or public school.
***
Oh, and there is always the chance that you spied me in your own town visiting any location having to do with the arts... afterall, isn't looking up the local art sites the first thing we do when we arrive in any new city?
***
You may have even seen me selling my own unique line of fused and leaded glass art at an art show!
***
Well, even if you don't know me yet, rest assured that I look forward to getting to know you better while sharing my inside-out arts knowledge with all who are interested.
Pictured here is "Deco Evolution" which is a unique stained glass window designed, fabricated, and installed in a private home by yours-truly some years ago.
"Cross Roads" is an example of my one-of-a-kind fused dichroic glass jewelry sets. This design is featured here in my Sunset Sail color scheme.
