Member’s Spotlight

So nice to be a part of CGS. I am impressed by the quality of works shown by fellow artists. I joined in August 2025. I am an artist and educator, as of November 2024, living in Voulême, France. I was raised in New York. My teaching credentials include over 100 workshops in the USA, South America and Europe, including Corning Museum of Glass, Berlin Glas, Pilchuck, and Penland School of Craft. The techniques I teach use a similar process of Medieval painting and firing enamels on glass in a kiln, but I combine more modern, less wasteful and quick processes of hand painting on glass including airbrushing, silk-screening, and penning. My work can be seen in the permanent collection of the Museum of Arts and Design, the Italian American Museum, the Leslie-Lohman Museum, the Stax Museum, and in the collections of two Simpson’s writers in Los Angeles. Private and public art commissions include a MTA Arts for Transit public art installation at the Philipse Manor Train Station in New York, and Our Lady of Sorrow Church in Brazil. I have collaborated with illustrator R. Crumb too! I have attended fifteen art residencies in the US, South America, Europe, Australia and India. In 2015 I was invited to be the keynote speaker for the Glass Society of Ireland and NCAD Conference.
