Chuck St. John - Glass
Artisan
Chuck has been living and working with glass
in British Columbia, Canada for more than
twenty-five years. He has developed a variety of
techniques for fabricating artwork in glass
and metals that reflect his own style and
sensibility. Using traditional methods of
leaded stained glass as well as
contemporary kiln-fired glass and tempered
safety glass, he is able to achieve a
variety of effects and produce work that
suits the particular location, style and
budget of his clients.
With designs ranging from representational
wildlife of the rugged B.C. Interior to the
abstract and kinetic light effects of
beveled glass and kiln-fired stained glass
in his non-representational work, Chuck
explores the potential of light and glass to
effect the mental and physical environment.
Having taken workshops at the Pilchuk Glass
School in Washington State, and numerous
other venues, Chuck has familiarized himself
with the wide range of possibilities that
glass can be used and is continually
expanding his knowledge in the arts. |
