Peggy's glass
art is sought by galleries nationwide. In addition her pieces
are held in both private and public collections nationwide. Her
process and style is innovative, unique and
fresh.
Her creation
of "Plasma Fusion Glass" takes glass from the "Ordinary to the
Extraordinary". Glass outside the boundaries, so to speak. She
continues to push the envelope to create stunning new & unique
glass artworks. Using glass as her canvas, she
creates incredible works of art, combining fusing, slumping, deep
sandcarving, intaglio oil painting, and fine metal inlay.
She has developed a glass
process without limits, resulting in some of the most beautiful
and truly original glass art available today.
"Anything is
possible", are
the words that she lives by. She has used her finely
honed skills to create new methods of working with glass as a fine
art form.
PLASMA FUSION GLASS: Fusing, kiln forming, and
sandcarving glass are time honored processes. Combining all these
(and using the resulting object as a canvas) on which to apply oil
colors and fine metal inlay is a unique process developed by Ms.
Stewart. This is "Plasma Fusion Glass".
She creates
vessels, sculpture and functional glass art using these
processes. In addition, she is a talented and experienced
artist in all methods of kiln formed & fused
glass.

In September 2004, MIKE
STEWART joined the studio. Mike brings many years of top
engineering talents and skills to the studio. His architectural
creations are above and beyond today's standards. Top
designers bring their designs and ideas to Mike, for him to
create. In addition, he has created his own beautiful
sculptural (and functional) glass art designs.
Mike's understanding of
physics, chemistry, and engineering principles allow him to set a
new standard in creativity. Working together with his wife, Peggy,
will create new and incredible glass art creations.
