Arts
Sandra is a glass fusing artist with a requirement. She says all her pieces must have a job. The beautiful art pieces she creates are extremely durable. They are meant to be used, not just sit on a shelf! Sandra says, “I think color and design should be incorporated into everything you do everyday”. Her art invites you to slow down and enjoy moments. She has always been an artist and describes her younger self as that shy girl who always had a drawing pad. She started out as a portrait artist and her path changed when she moved to PA and applied for a job at a glassblowing production studio despite the fact that she had no experience. This tenacious woman got the job and experimented with glass fusing kiln and developed a product line for her employer. Sandra Kaye raised her kids by making functional art. Her untold story also reveals a tenaciousness that saved her son’s life. She has a studio on Lancaster Avenue in Reading where she teaches the art of glass fusing. The last quarter of the year is filled with glass ornament workshops, the rest of the year she is busy filling galleries all across the country with her beautiful functional art.
