Lark Birdsong

Iowa City, IA

ARTIST'S STATMENT:

Lark's journey has been diverse. With a strong background in education, business and sports, she has always been passionate about growth, learning, the power of teamwork and utilized creativity in all her roles and life. 

Lark nurtured her artistic side and became a fused glass artist, where she found a new way to express herself and connect with others. Her first attempts were at the YMCA of the Rockies with Millie as her instructor. She was hooked. 

She has studies under guest artists Lois Manno, Nadine Booth, Cortney Boyd, Sarinda Jones, Jennifer Walkovich, Bullseye Glass training videos and classes and others who are talented and have been honing their work for many years.

Additionally, she experiments with techniques on her own that yield failures, give great lessons and eventually some successes. 

Her art is designed to evoke feelings of calm, joy, wonderment and peace, inviting viewers to return to each piece with a little smile. 

Lark's work is a reflection of her belief in the beauty of simplicity and the joy of seeing life with love.
