Jacqueline Bridge
I have a background in the photographic arts. My favorite genres ar street photography and portraiture, so it follows that I am intrigued by people, their faces, their environments. I became interested in fused glass art about 15 years ago while visiting a glass artists studio in Del Dios, CA. I enrolled in some instruction and, from there, was off and running. As time went on I tried to incorporate my passion for photography using fused glass as my medium. I imagined “painting” with glass. What I love about glass is that it is imperfect, unpredictable in the melting process both as to shape and color. This leads to some interesting surprises from time to time.
I try to incorporate other materials in my work, too. I love mixed media and was very excited when asked to take part in a collaborative exhibit.
Much of my art is a result of having fun.
