Instructors

Tina Amidon

You'll find Tina teaching our mosaic birdbath workshop.

"I love color, whimsy, flowers," says Amidon. She adds, "Things that are junky can become art, like broken glass, dishes, and bottles. And I like the concept of pulling the impossible together. I'd like for everyone to experience that."

Tina has worked with painted floor cloths, welding, painted furniture, jewelry, concrete, and more. She encourages her students to bring in personal items to add individual character to their works.

Peter Dunk

Peter Dunk exhibits the qualities of a master teacher with his in-depth knowledge of stained glass. Peter teaches our 5-week stained glass classes.

Over the years, he has had the priviledge to work with many of the most highly regarded art-glass studios and manufacturing plants. Peter's alliance with the Stained Glass Garden includes years as a producer of panels and lamps (his specialty), as well as teaching introductory and intermediate stained-glass classes.

Michele Mitcavish

"I love color. Color is what compels me to do art."

Michele teaches several of our classes and workshops, including fused jewelry, beadmaking, mosaic stepping stones, and decorative soldering.

Michele has worked as an art teacher at Delphi Stained Glass (Michigan) and the Women's Community Building (New York). She was also employed at Gordon Heuther & Partners, a design firm in Napa, California, until she took leave to start her own business. Currently, Michele designs, manufacturers, and distributes her own line of art-glass products.

Bryan Northup

A stained glass artist himself, Bryan has art work hanging in the Stained Glass Garden. Bryan teaches the Boxmaking Workshop and various Hot Glass Workshops.

Bryan has a unique style with glass and constantly exploring and experimenting with new techniques. He is an excellent resource for anyone with a desire to try something different and daring.

Ken Shelby

Ken has been a long time teacher with the Stained Glass Garden. Students appreciate Ken's sense of humor and dedication to art glass. He makes it a point to focus on the fun of the art. Ken teaches our 5-week stained glass classes.
