| Blue Heron Glass is created by Christie Moody. Christie spent her childhood in Memphis, Tenn inspired and encouraged by her mother, a painter. After graduating with a BFA in Art Education at University of Georgia she discovered the magic of glass when a friend demonstrated the basics of stained glass. This was the beginning of a long adventure of an enigmatic nature of this versatile material. Christie taught art, including glass art, for many years to students of all ages. Out of these experiences, she developed her own techniques for carving, hotworking, fusing, and slumping glass. Her images of flora and fauna of the Georgia sea islands and rivers speak of her love for these eco-systems. She works at her studio in her farm in northeast Georgia where she lives with her husband, daughter and son. |
