LK Hawks
Owner, Artist, Instructor
After being a Professor at Utah State University,
LK Hawks took early retirement (after 26 years)
to follow her passion for fusing glass. Her
art pieces are a culmination of more than ten
years of art experiences in pottery, welding,
sand blasting, fusing and slumping glass.
Hawks has taken every opportunity to train herself
in the techniques and methods of creating glass
art. She has been educated by some of the best
glass artists in the county (Phil Teefy, Dan Fenton,
Lisa Volt). As a result of these experiences,
she has developed new techniques and processes
that result in unique art pieces.
Most of her art pieces are made of recycled glass.

Fran Titchener
Artist, Instructor
Fran fell in love with beads in early March 1996 on a snowy day on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, and has never looked back. Her interest in color, design, and material has led her to take classes in techniques of stained glass, lapidary, lamp work bead making, and different kinds of beading techniques, at the Embellishment conference in Portland OR, and most recently in Milwaukee at the Bead and Button show. She plans to keep learning forever, and hopes that her bead designs get better and better. |

Denise Maughan, Artist, Instructor
Denise has always enjoyed crafting and making
something out of nothing. She has explored
her artistic skills in tinwork, making rubber
stamps, tole painting, calligraphy, and knitting.
In the last few years she has had the opportunity
to work in a glass shop which helped her realizing
her life-time desire to create stained glass.
She loves creating her own patterns, doing commission
work through the glass shop, and sharing her craft
with others. Her life motto is you can do
anything if you want to bad enough.
