Some of her art work is influenced by her time living on Okinawa and in Europe. She enjoys traveling with her husband. They seek out churches with stained glass windows.
Marsha does copper fill then it is leaded together. She pulls glass from all over. She loves antique and discontinued glass so she can make one of a kind artwork. Marsha does custom work and gives lessons. Her phone number is 541-961-6590.
