Note: "My artwork relies heavily on the energy of personal artistic discovery. I would much rather plunge straight ahead with a new technique or idea than risk losing its freshness to over analyzing. As a result of the 'ask questions later' attitude, my unique style of sewing glass was born. In a way, my work is the result of homemaking skills gone awry. I have always embraced domesticity in spirit, but not in action. My life as an artist puts housekeeping last while instead I cook, arrange, and sew glass. As a result perhaps, I am fascinated by the perceived simplicity of the 1950's household, and often include that imagery in my work."Glascow was a NICHE Award finalist in 2002 and 2003, shortly after she returned as Emerging Artist in Residence at the Pilchuck Glass School in Washington.
