Suzanne is an accomplished glass artist and in her own words "The topic is my five-year adventure with rare dalle de verre (slab) stained glass. Many of you know that as a lifelong administrator with no art school credentials, I have often felt like an “imposter” rather than a real artist. As we embark on this new year, I will share the humble journey that has enabled me to start believing in myself as an artist." To see more of her wonderful work visit her website
