I love discussing art, studying the history of art, and most of all, making art. For the last couple years I've mainly concentrated on stained glass. This led me to lampworking, which is making beads and sculptures with glass and a torch. In other words, I get to play with fire! The first moment I laid eyes on this amazing process, I was hooked. Since then I have spent countless hours (and dollars!) setting up my studio and making beautiful beads.
I have recently started my own company called White Torch Glassworks, where I sell my lampwork beads and jewelry I make from them, as well as my stained glass work. I currently sell a little on Etsy, but mostly on ebay. Also, I have a booth at the Provo Farmer's Market. My sister, Elizabeth helps me out. It's so much fun hanging out with the other sellers, meeting lots of different people, and demonstrating my torch work. If I had my way, I'd quit work and school and play with glass all the time.
Kellie, I absolutely LOVE your stained glass peices! I wish I could watch you make it sometime!
ReplyDeleteThanks you! Maybe sometime I'll post a video of it...or at least get some photos of me making it. I must say, Heidi, you were one of my inspirations to start blogging! I love reading your stuff.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your art, Kellie! I especially like the first stained glass piece posted in this blog. Keep doing your thing!
