As someone who struggles to draw a stick figure, it seems far-fetched that I would leave my corporate comfort zone to dive head-first into a career as an artist... but that is exactly what Nancy Marks did. Nancy convinced herself that she had no artistic skills whatsoever, until she signed up for a fused glass class to spend quality time with her mother, and discovered a passion and talent while "embracing the imperfections" of art. She then merged her corporate and creative skills to start her own studio. Brilliant! Love this conversation and the lessons learned from it.
Artist, Instructor, Small Business Owner
After 30+ years in corporate, Nancy Marks took a creative leap and found her passion in fused glass art. Beginning with a single class, despite her initial self-doubt about having any artistic talent. To her surprise, she discovered a knack for working with glass and embraced the imperfect beauty of her creations. Glass Arts Collective. More than just a studio, it's a sanctuary where artists converge, forming an intimate community bound by the transformative power of art. It's a place where mental well-being flourishes, as individuals evoke emotions through artistic expression.
