Ivy Andrews –
In the last three years I have had several workshops with Gigha. She is a great teacher and I had so much fun learning the basics of stained glass art and making my first pieces.
Gigha is a true luminary in glass art and I also really enjoyed my fusion glass workshop with her. I think her knowledge of different techniques is her great strength and makes her studio so special. It is an enchanting place where you can let your creativity run free and try things out. 1000 thanks, dear Gigha, for your patience and support. Next time I’m in the area, I’ll try to get a place at one of your workshops again.
