Biography
My first exposure to the beauty of stained glass was when I attended Ursuline Academy and the Little Flower Basilica. (I was more fascinated with the stained windows than what was going on). I took classes to learn the art and enjoyed creating pieces for my family and friends. I took a pause for marriage and children, and then revived my passion 9 years ago.
I create my own designs and my own patterns. I try to make pieces affordable by limiting the size of panels and using small but colorful glass pieces that I find in the “scrap” bins at stained glass stores or broken pieces found at estate sales. I hand pick every piece for their blended and vibrant colors, texture and movement in the glass. Sometimes, a singular piece of glass will inspire the finished product.
I prefer the organic look of curves and circular cuts over straight lines because it creates a sense of movement. I also experiment by including other glass materials in the panel, that is, beads, fused glass, agates, and tumbled glass. All of my designs are original . No two are alike!
My studio is located at my home in central San Antonio, Texas. All are welcome to visit, sit, chat, and browse. I also do custom panels for larger windows. Please email or text for a convenient time.
