"The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls."
Iron Mountain Arts (Iron Mountain Arts/ That Frit Girl, LLC) is a one person glass and mixed-media studio in sunny (sweltering) Bulverde, TX, in the hill country just north of San Antonio. I'm a self-taught lampworker & metalsmith who works full-time, part time, and owns the glass company "That Frit Girl" www.thatfritgirl.com, so I only get to play with the fun stuff when I've been good…or when I can run fast enough to get away from my regular duties.
My studio is filled with a rainbow of metals, glass, tools, wire, beads, torches of all shapes & sizes, art, and various creations in differing stages of completion. And maybe a cat or two… My inspiration comes from everything that I see, hear, read, smell, feel… textures & colors constantly mix and fade in my mind like a gentle breeze. My feelings are also reflected in my creations, whether they are bold or muted, classic or edgy. Each piece is created in the moment thereby producing a truly unique work of art.
