SHELBY'S BIO
Shelby has been immersed in the glass world since the early 1970's in Northern California where she maintained her studio until recently moving to Sarasota, Florida. She now divides her time working in glass between Sarasota and San Pancho, Mexico. She began her glass career creating Stained Glass pieces which she sold at Art Fairs. Developing and refining her skills she went on to making Custom Stained Glass Windows. She did this for about 15 years when she read a book on Glass Fusion and dove into that.
For the next 15 years she was a Glass Fuser showing her work at many Art Fairs and Art Galleries. After studying and teaching the ancient art of Glass Tile Mosaics in Italy, Greece, and the US, Shelby is currently a Glass Mosaic Artist. In 1999 she was a winner of the very prestigious Corning Glass Museum's 'Neuw Glass Review', working with Mosaics , and developing new substrate designs. Teaching this wonderful art form continues to fill her life. |
