About Us
About Our Business
Welcome to Hot Coles Glass! My name is Heidi Coles and I'm a lampworker and
jewelry artist. My experience in art is quite diverse. I found myself dabbling in
quite a few different mediums before I found my true love...glass! With my
experience in water color painting, basketry, clay work, cake decorating, etc. I
believe it has given me a good understanding in the basics of composition, color and
technique.
I was first introduced to hot glass work around 1996, when I purchased a starter
kit. At the time, my resources were so limited that I soon became frustrated with
certain problems I was encountering and gave up, packing away that kit for about 8
years and pursued other interests. Again my interest was piqued when I had the
availability to resources through the internet. Finally, after gathering together
some much needed supplies and tools, I dug out that kit and have been hooked
ever since.
As with any art, this is truly a journey of continual learning and evolving as an
artist. I am self taught but have gathered much knowledge from books and on such
forums as Wet Canvas. Every day I see myself growing artistically and see my
skills improving.
Hope you enjoy!
