Colleen Cotton - Kiln Formed Glass As an artist of many media since childhood, I became fascinated with fusing glass years ago. As a media, it is relatively scarce, and thus offers me the opportunity to explore an unusual material that has the creative tension of fluid and solid, soft and hard properties. Living and working in the country, I am inspired by the colors of nature. Oranges,

Paintings and Prints Almost all of my paintings are from photographs, generally slides. I use the photographs as color and light references, and to help lay out the paintings. All paintings are acrylic, on art board unless noted otherwise. My paintings are done using a combination of airbrush and hand brush. The airbrush work varies between hard-edged, tightly defined masked work and

Monotype prints make up most of my work but printmaking produces many pieces that don’t make it for viewing. They go in a drawer and wait for other ideas to spawn.The birth of Sculpted Print Fragments was an idea that became somewhat of an obsession. Cutting up these prints that didn’t quite make it for me gave them a new life. I have many ideas for new designs after making these

We were pleased to see Charles Quibell's woodwork in the Marin Arts Council exhibit, "Paths in Studio Craft: Masters and Apprentices of the Baulines Craft Guild." Although the exhibit was in January, at the Marin Community Foundation Gallery in Novato, the Baulines Craft Guild Master Show video, provides an excellent example of this craft. The below photo is from the Marin Arts Council

I would admire the beautiful, Italian glass figurines on my Nonni’s fireplace mantel, as a young child, but I did not appreciate the potential of Venetian glass as jewelry until I traveled the Italian islands of Venice and Murano with my husband, in 2006. I was amazed by the craftsmanship of the Murano glass artisans, and by the way that the gold and silver foil, glass beads caught the light like

Sally Weare has lived in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1969 after returning from four years in London. She now lives mostly in a studio in Sonoma County, California, on the edge of a 5000 acre State Park, where coyotes howl, and deer and wild turkey abound. She is extremely lucky to share her life with her husband Shane, their 3 grandchildren, Nisi, Elias, and Ian, son Tobias and his wife

My Granni introduced me to beads and I spent hours in the back room of her house looking at, touching and stringing them. In 1999, I sold my first piece of jewelry to a friend who also encouraged me to start a business. I chose the name Heartfire to express my passion about and love of beads, especially
