My name is Karen. I am South African by birth, Canadian by nationality and currently residing in the pacific northwest with my family.
I have many passions but am repeatedly drawn to fused glass as my primary medium for personal expression. The depth of the colours, the lure of the textures & the endless possibilities for creating function in art, make fused glass an ideal area in which to explore.
I also express myself by writing – sometimes directly from my own life experiences…sometimes as a result of what I see in others. In other words, what I write is not necessarily autobiographical! It is simply a reflection of what interests me…for whatever reason. I have no illusions about my writing skills…but the process helps me to clarify my thoughts and clear my head.
