Mosaic New Mexico
Bill Simpson
I have been working with glass for more than thirty years, first as a hobby, then (primarily while living in Colorado Springs) as a buisness. Although most of my work has been traditional stained glass using copper foil and leaded techniques, I have recently begun making glass on glass mosaics. I design each piece myself and rarely re-use a pattern - never with the same glass.
You can be confident that any piece of glass art from my studio will be one-of-a-kind and well constructed.
The motifs most often found in my work derive from my interest in the American Southwest and natural forms and scenes.
But I also enjoy making pieces that are purely abstract splashes of color, pieces based upon children's drawings, and other
flights of fancy.
Prior to shifting my work from a hobby to a business, then moving to Colorado, and finally returning to New Mexico, I was a college professor, a management consultant, and staff for New Mexico legislative and higher education committees. I have enjoyed living in upstate New York, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, but delighted to have found home in the southwest.
