Meet TESS
A Designer with a Passion for all Things Glass

Shortly after earning my Associate degree in Commercial Art, I left my home state of Utah and headed for South Florida. Spending the next 30 years building a career as a graphic artist, continuously adapting as the industry gradually transitioned from desktop to digital. While looking for a stress-free creative outlet, I stumbled into a stained glass studio, took a class and was instantly hooked. Taking an entry level position at the same studio, improving my skills enough to take a teaching position as well.  Fast forward to the present, the transition from the advertising industry into the colorful world of glass has formed a happy merger of both mediums. Applying my design skills to the glass, It was a journey I felt destined to take and glad to have experienced.
Today my work has progressed into a blend of traditional stained glass and contemporary mosaics. My designs generally reflect a floral and aquatic theme, with an occasional hint of conservation awareness and education. Tastefully mingled with a splash of copper, glass beads and other organic materials, my work is a reflection of who I am and what I love to do. It’s the details that give my work a personal touch... my signature of choice.
