Military Veteran, World Traveler, Philanthropist, Animal Lover, Optimist

The direction of my life was set when my father was recalled to active duty in the Air Force in 1962 when I was five years old. My family moved from a farm in "small town" Indiana to Tripoli, Libya and thus began a lifetime of travel. After spending my early years living around the world as an Air Force brat, I attended Indiana University, graduating with a Forensic Studies (Criminology) degree. A year later, I followed in my father's footsteps joining the Air Force as a criminal and counterintelligence investigator. After a rewarding 20 year career, I retired and cultivated my creative interests and focused on art glass as my medium of expression. I have found my individual style and I am very content in my life.

Artist Statement

Anne is a contemporary fused glass artist best known for her multidimensional, layered glass sculptures. Her glass work is always evolving and she is constantly exploring ways to go deeper with her imagination. Anne’s love of color, texture and the beauty of glass is evident in her current abstract work. In it, Anne creates a diverse array of contemporary designs painted on glass with multiple layers of enamels which are fired in her kiln. Once cool, she adds layers of glass to the base, building interest and texture, then back in the kiln another time resulting in her abstract textural designs. Each of these cutting edge glass works are modern and fresh and hopefully elicit joy for the viewer.
