When Karen purchased her first kiln for firing ceramics, she discovered that she could fire glass in it. This was the start of my interest in art glass and I have been working with glass for over 10 years. Glass has become my passion in art. When she travels she gets inspired by new surroundings and tries to put that inspiration into her work.

Karen’s kiln formed animals have personality far beyond what is reasonable for this flat medium! She has recently been welding and incorporating glass into the welding making large animals suitable for garden settings.
