Artist Profile

lisajane artist profile
from the first lick of the flame I have been addicted to glass
since then I have been awed | inspired | transfixed by the medium glass |
I am always humbled by the vast divide that separates me from where I want to be |
it’s this divide that makes me realise I will only contribute what I can in my lifetime |
hopefully my life will leave a pathway for others to follow |
this hope motivates | drives | excites me |
