Jennifer Anne Kelly

Jennifer creates in Ottawa, Ontario. In 1992 Jennifer received a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and attended her first glass course; the combination set her on a journey of discovering how to transform thoughts into glass. She has enjoyed the benefit of attending some of North America’s top glass schools including The Studio at Corning, Pittsburgh Glass School, Bullseye Glass Studio in Portland, and Urban Glass in New York. Jennifer’s focus is on combining the mystical with science and creating work that inspires people to feel optimistic. From fine detailed features to paired down abstractions, the effect is ethereal and serene. Jennifer works primarily in kiln formed glass with detail work in powdered glass and flame worked elements. Her work has been featured internationally in Cirque du Soleil boutiques and in private collections.
