Michelle of Fire and Ice Designs hails from British Columbia and also started out in stained glass. Along the way she worked in various mediums and then discovered lampworking.
In her blog: http://mishysfire.blog.spot.com/
she states that “the ony way to grow as an artist is to challenge yourself with new mediums and take big scary leaps in the process. Delving into glass as a molten medium has been an exciting, sometimes traumatic experience. It has challenged me and given me moments of joy as I bring a piece to life…I don’t just make and sell jewelry….I create precious art and wait patiently for a wonderful person to adopt it as their own.” Taking a risk has certainly paid off for Mishy.
