Jackie Kahn

Jackie began cutting glass at the young age of 10. Her eagerness to fix every broken window from neighborhood baseball games played in her back yard caught the attention of her father. Soon trips to the local library, museums, and glass factory began so she could research how to work with stained glass. Jackie practiced cutting glass everyday and mastered cutting ¼” wide strips that became a distinctive element in her designs.

While in college Jackie experimented with a technique new to her which involved fusing float glass in a ceramic kiln. Although her successes were few, the knowledge she gained was immeasurable. Jackie holds multiple degrees in art including interior design, studio art and art therapy. She has participated in several art exhibits and has work on permanent display at the Arizona Military Museum.

Today, Jackie uses specially formulated glass along with a glass fusing kiln to create her beautiful, one-of-a-kind, functional and decorative glass pieces. While she continues to experiment and push the limits of, and what some may say “is not keeping within the purities of glass” she will crossover those boundaries and incorporate various metals to embellish her designs.

 Come see my latest work at Sudha's Art Gallery, Studio #15 on the tour map where I will be a Guest Artist.
