Diane Brinton has dabbled in the arts for over 40 years – weaving, painting, pottery, jewelry and new techniques working with silver and bronze (precious metal clay). She’s always collected glass objects like a ‘magpie’ and at long last learned glass art for herself. Her pieces evoke the mystery and magic of nature, that is where her heart lives.

Taking instruction from local and international artists Diane has built a wide-ranging expertise working with glass and PMC (precious metal clay). In her home studio she creates art pieces using mosaics, PMC, fused glass, flame sculpted glass and blown glass.   Diane blows glass in her home studio creating jewelry and delicate sculptures. Each piece is unique – beads in a necklace might  be similar but not identical.

Diane belongs to the Hammond Bay Studio Tour group, the Vancouver Island Fireflies, and sells locally at galleries, shops, markets and fairs.
