Artist's Resume

Back in the 1970’s Jim had a stained glass business doing both residential and commercial commissions. During that time he worked with many West Coast glass artists who are still active today. Later, while working in other high-tech fields, he continued to study and do workshops to keep close to his love of glass. Now he is back in his studio and producing pieces. It is both the science of glass, new techniques in fusing, and the challenges of solving the artistic problems in a demanding medium that motivates his work at JAMES NEVITT STUDIO GLASS.
