Every endeavor has a beginning, and the establishment of Padfoot Studio was a long time in coming. I studied art in high school, and competed for art scholarships for college, but I also loved the sciences.
Eventually, pursuit of an education in the sciences won out, and my career went down the technology path. While rewarding, the pressures and challenges of my career left me needing a creative outlet. It became inevitable that I would create a space where the pressures of the world could drop away, a space to share with friends and other artists.
Padfoot Studio was born in 2014 with the loving efforts of my family and friends. A small space in my home was converted into my studio, providing me with my escape: creating a collection of decorative, functional, and wearable art glass pieces, custom made using a variety of glass fusing techniques. The beauty of fused glass lies in its delicate dance of light and color, where each piece is unique in its shimmering textures and vibrant hues. Fused glass art captures light and color in a way that transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary, blending creativity with science to produce pieces of beauty. I’m delighted to have this little spot where laughter, creativity, and collaboration is the theme. I’m enjoying where this journey is heading!
