Shirley Cook Glass & Fiber Artist
I discovered Shirley Cook of Jumping Jack Glass & Flames and Fiber, a new artist I found at Bead & Button this past June. Shirly, who was primarily a glass bead artist until she discovered fiber is pictured with her amazing work – go to her etsy site for more. Her beads are wonderful too, but seriously, her fiber work is amazing.
