Nancy Burke


saying it with glass...

 

Nancy makes her artistic expression through the luscious medium of glass.

Her thirty-some year voyage has been imbued with incredible enthusiasm, unbounded joy of exploration and experimentation and the seemingly endless ways and means of  creating with glass;

glass  sheet – chunks – frit - powder – rods – slabs, ...

metals – micas – foils – iridescent – dichroic – enamels - silver stain –

.organics cast – fused – tacked – epoxied - uv glued - warm worked – cold worked -  laminated – molded - free-form – mosaic - pate de verre -  faceted - engraved...

 

Influences for Nancy's glass art, whether sculptural, functional or whimsical, are quite simply life's magnificent experiences and chance adventure.  And  being blessed  with numerous fantastic  learning opportunities with some incredible people;
