Welcome to Klose to Classic!
And Thank You for visiting me online!
I first discovered the Art of Glass in 2001. Since then, I have had the opportunity to
study with and be inspired by many internationally known bead artists.
Using a variety of lampworking techniques, I blend colored glasses and precious metals, and shape the molten mass into unique beads.
Along the way, I faced another challenge: How to integrate my beads into totally unique, exciting pieces of wearable art? To that end, I started incorporating wire sculpture and metalsmithing along with my lampwork beads.
I hope you enjoy browsing my website.
You may even find a piece that "speaks to you."
