Marlene East Glass Art's Profile

Bio

When creating glass art, I'm in a happy place! Whether it is cutting intricate pieces of fusible sheet glass, layering glass powders, grinding and polishing edges, painting wood panel backgrounds, or smashing bottles to upcycle in shard art, I'm in that zone of pure contentment. I feel lucky to have discovered an art form that resonates in my soul. There's no other feeling like opening the kiln after firing a detailed art piece to nearly 1500 degrees, having waited 24-36 hours to finally glimpse how the glass layers took on new depth, dimension, and form. It's a take my breath away experience! While being a licensed counselor for many years and often using art therapy to help clients heal from trauma and tragedy, I also spent much time honing my craft as a glass artist. I'm mesmerized by glass in its many forms and embrace the challenge of learning the myriad of ways to create art from glass.
