Julia began working
in stained glass in 1987, studying under several instructors including
nationally know glass artist Vicki Payne. She worked in traditional
leaded glass and in the copper foil method of construction, and
also in warm (kiln fired) glass. Julia ia a member of the Art Glass
Association, the International Guild of Glass Artists, the Suncoast
Gem and Mineral Society and the Pinellas Geological Society. Huntington
Street Stained Glass in St. Petersburg, FL, is a Vicki Payne Certified
Stained Glass Teaching Center where she provides custom stained
glass and fused glass. She also teaches stained glass, fusing and
mosaics, as well as teaching week-long workshops in North Carolina
and Georgia, and Continuing Education classes for the City of St.
Petersburg Leisure and Recreation Dept. The beauty of natural surroundings
has always inspired her. She says the unfolding drama of the universe,
the breathtaking geology of our planet, the incredible diversity
of life in the air, sea and earth, all send my imagination soaring.
An inveterate reader, she tries to put a little poetry into each
piece she creates.
