Small Glass Turtle

I have been working with glass for over 30 years. I started at the Silianoff Studios in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where we designed and created stained glass windows for religious and other institutions. I then moved to Maine where I continued working with leaded and copper foiled glass, making lampshades and other decorative items which were sold through galleries in Maine. In the early 1990s I was introduced to kiln fired glass. I studied at the Corning Museum of Glass in New York under the direction of world-class artists. My work was recently featured at the New Bedford Museum of Glass gift shop
