Location Seattle, WA, United States
Introduction JUDY: Passionate about art from childhood, I love both creating art and admiring others' art. I've been a fused glass artist for two years, after teaching high school English for twelve years. I love playing with whimsical designs and free-flowing pieces, such as mosaics, as well as the geometric precision of pieces inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright and Josef Albers. ************************************** WENDY: Art has always terrified me. The self-inflicted pressures of creating something beautiful, perfect, meaningful, and forever lasting is quite a toll to measure up to. Art is often an intimate experience, easily allowing the uneasy feelings of vulnerability. It is only in this journey of acceptance and finding the courage to let go that allows that which is within to come forth. In not only accepting the imperfect but appreciating and fully embracing it, I am able to move forward with my work, freely relishing the joy and freedom that creativity yields. It is this perpetual tug-of-war between the controlled and wild freedom that my work teeters upon. Art in any form is my passion, and it is my great pleasure to share it with you.
