Kathy Nelson enjoys working with students and has developed multiple classes to help others appreciate the world of glass. The ancient art of working glass has always been an area of interest.  The durability of Egyptian glass represents the lasting quality of glass pieces.  How can something so fragile exist for millennia? Exploring the stained glass of Europe inspired her.   Fused glass allowed for more fluid art and remains her focus today.  The play of light in glass remains a fascination. She feels that  glass offers students an easy way to express their imagination.
