Nancy Hoover has been a watercolor artist for 20 years, and has a degree in graphic art. Four years ago, she found her passion for jewelry design, and then began creating beads by melting and sculpting glass at the torch. She also creates unique glass pendants by layering dichroic * and colored glass and fusing or melting the piece in the kiln. Nancy also appreciates the natural beauty of gemstones and creates many jewelry pieces to showcase their cut and color.
