Judy McManus - Glass

Judy McManus received a BFA from Western Carolina University in 1977. Her major concentration was mixed media, especially as it related to fiber and glass. She felt that the two mediums had a contrasting appeal which interested her as both an artist and a viewer. Pursuing her fascination with glass, Judy continued her studies as a graduate student at WCU. Just a few hours shy of her graduate degree, Judy quit the program for personal reasons.

Over the last two years Judy has returned to glassblowing with renewed energy and a fresh perspective. Working mainly in high quality clear glass, she has enjoyed exploring the properties and simplicity of this pure medium.
