About Dianne Carlisle:
My name is Dianne Carlisle, a Fused-Glass artist living in the Paris Landing area of TN with my husband of 40 plus years. I grew up on the Jersey Shore just a couple of blocks from the ocean. Attending Catholic Mass fueled my love for glass. I spent many hours bored but stuck in the pews, so I would make up stories about the people featured in the church's stained glass windows. At 17, my parents gifted me a trip to Spain and Morocco, and it was there that my passion ignited. Seeing all the amazing cathedrals with glass that was a thousand years old put me in awe of the power that stories in glass could tell. I knew then that at some point in my life, I would work with glass.
Many years later, I found a local college that offered stained glass classes and my journey continued. Then I found glass fusing, and the freedom it gave me was unbelievable, allowing me to create my own colors using glass powders. Working with these powders for the last 23 years, I have perfected techniques that allow me to create almost anything I can imagine. Fusing also requires a lot of science, and being self taught in this medium, I have found that science always wins. I'm most known for my florals and seascapes which are influenced by my ocean roots and the beautiful area I live in now. My husband is my biggest fan and partner in this venture, and together, we do art fairs in the TN and KY area. My work is also in several galleries where I also teach classes.
