Our selection process for artisans to share a Featured Artist window looks for ways the works of one artisan complements the other’s. Nan Burke’s work centers on how patterns in glass can look like those in nature, while Janet Smith’s series, Images from the Boatyard, are about how photos of peeling paint can become landscapes.
