Michelle Tucker

Michelle has led a very creative life. Through the years she has collected skills in many areas: from woodworking with her father, quilting and sewing with her mother, to learning to knit and crochet. Michelle went to college for Studio Art and, during her last semester, took a class in glassblowing, which led to a love of fire and glass. She studied glass torchwork for several years then decided to play with fire in a different way and started metalsmithing. Michelle enjoys designing and making jewelry and will never pass up on the opportunity to learn new techniques and hone current skills.
