Translating The Beauty Of Nature Into Unique Art Glass Expressions
"We are wonderfully connected, entangled, interwoven with nature and all creation" ~ Wendy
Wendy Williams is a hot glass, or flamework glass, sculptor living in the upstate of South Carolina. Her career with this molten medium started in the early 1990's. Styles have changed and grown since her apprenticeship on Maui but the one thing that has remained constant is her passion for colorful, elegant & high quality designs.
She enjoys botanical art forms with contemporary and unique designs finding inspiration from her herbal flower garden, hikes through the woods or exploring down by the river. The joy and beauty of nature is so evidently seen in her intricately produced sculptures. She loves the fine details that can be achieved. The quality of light flowing through translucent glass will always bring a smile to her heart.
She was introduced to the art of the flame while living on the Island of Maui. Chances are you saw her working in the little gallery’s studio window located on Front Street in Lahaina. Or maybe you met her under the Banyan Tree at an art show weekend.
Her work has been displayed in several galleries including:
