STAN HARMON

Stan Harmon will tell you glass as a medium of self-expression has dominated his artistic endeavors since his first self-taught stain glass piece in the late 70’s. No formal training is a reoccurring theme in the many mediums he works in. His artwork is an attempt to recreate a moment in time, an atmosphere, the feeling of connection with the creatures that inhabit the many emotionally moving moments of time and space he has experienced in daily living and travel. He rarely sketches a work in advance but instead walks into the piece re-creating the moment from deeply ingrained memories and feelings associated with the chosen subject or place. The closer he goes into the scene the more he sees and records, often discovering he saw more the first time than he was aware of. Hopefully others, though his art, will re-connect with their forgotten brushes with Nature’s profound beauty.
