Mary Augustyn
My name is Mary Augustyn. I live in rural Bovey, Minnesota. I have been experimenting with different mediums my whole life. As a child I made lot's of mud pie's and painted by numbers. In high school, I fell in love with clay. I continued to work with clay through college. After I had my two kids, I put my art on hold until they were in school. I then started to paint and tried acrylics and studied watercolor too.
In 2001 we moved to Minnesota from Illinois. I started taking pottery classes and then tried my hand at stained glass and fused glass classes. As you can probably tell I love to try new mediums. It feels so wonderful to get back to producing art on a regular basis.
I have a wheel and last summer my husband hooked up my kiln. It's been great to have that at my house and the freedom that gives me. I have my art work in five different states and in nine stores and I am always looking to expand my market. I'm enjoying the freedom to let my creativity flow and share my art with others.
I taught my first fused glass class in February, it was wonderful. Everyone was so pleased, were going to do it again.
