 By
combining the use of a glass combing band saw and the copper foil
technique, the method most commonly used for smaller works. Sam has
taken the art of stained glass to a new and exciting plateau.
Evoking such words as, unique, original, creative and yes even
"funky". Sam's mirrors, picture frames and jewelry, are, from
initial conception to completion, one of a kind, handcrafted,
functional works of art.
Sam's work has been displayed in galleries throughout the United
States including Hawaii, her creations can even be found adorning
walls in Europe.
Originally from Amityville, New York, Sam moved to Tennessee in the
early seventies. She studied Commercial Art at Watkins Institute and
has been working with stained glass since 1987.
