Please help us welcome Michelle Prosek to the Gallery Shop!

Michelle creates beautiful wall hangings featuring kiln-blown glass, dichroic glass jewelry, and Kinusaiga-inspired abstracts and landscapes.

Kinusaiga is a modern Japanese art form where textured pictures are created by tucking small pieces of fabric into pre-cut grooves on a board.

Her unique and colourful pieces are truly wonderful to see in person.

Stop by the Gallery Shop and take a closer look at Michelle’s work!
