Pauline Olesen's bio


Pauline Olesen is a Canadian artist living on Piers Island, near Sidney, BC.

A fortuitous experiment with glass many years ago ignited a curiosity and passion for this medium.  While the process of glass making and fusing was discovered in the times of Ancient Egypt, the skills were lost when glass blowing techniques developed.  Glass fusing re-emerged in the early 1960's and continues to move into the "art" world with studio glass creations.  Pauline's work in fused glass reflects travels, cultures and creatures from around the world.  She is self taught in this medium  experimenting in her Piers Island  studio.  Although her work is shown and sold only on Vancouver Island, her pieces find homes around the world.
