Laura Dawson - Artist Statement

After years of experimenting and trying different forms of art, I took a stained glass class and fell in love. Glass became my chosen media --- stained glass, a little bead making, some mosaics, and now fused glass. Dichroic glass is amazing! The possibilities are endless.

During my journey into the world of glass I'm mostly self taught. However, I have taken workshops with great glass artists like Vicki Payne, Newy Fagan, Joe Porcelli, Linda Steider and Peter McGrain to name a few. I made my very first bead with the help of Cindy Jenkins!

 I've been very blessed in my pursuit of glass happiness, people have collected my glass from as far away as Australia. My glass has shipped to nearly all 50 states and worldwide including Australia, Canada, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, and the United Kingdom.

Currently my work is being sold in the Milwaukee area at Stanford Art Gallery & Studios and Urban Accents.

I am a proud member of the Worldwide Women Artists Online, an international collective of women artists showing and selling our original art through the worldwide web.
