Artists

Jaylene Nordgren

I have been fascinated with color since I was a child.  Whether I was arranging my crayons or small colored tiles, I loved color.  My mother was a water color and pastel artist who had taught high school art before she got married.  She always encouraged my appreciation of art and the colorful world around me.

In 1991 I started my journey into stained glass.  I took classes from John Stoddard and Christa Moore.  After several years of practice I joined Cape Fear Studio and began teaching.  I have been teaching for over twenty years.  I enjoy watching my students overcome their fear of breaking glass.  They have inspired me in their various visions. 

To further my appreciation of art and color I have taken several classes and workshops in drawing, oil painting, oil pastels, water colors, acrylics, and colored pencils.
