Maureen Storey’s first 35-year career as a PhD nutrition scientist was fulfilling as she held executive-level positions in the food industry, academia and trade associations. But in the rare moments of her spare time, she discovered a joyful outlet for her creative energy through fused and stained glass.
Science is art and art is science. Both are her passions. Maureen, who is based in Northern Virginia, first discovered glass art through a workshop and enjoyed the freedom to express herself by creating beautiful, colorful works of art with fused glass. Now, she expands into creating stained glass artwork and has an encore career as a glass artist.
“I create my glass art to show emotion, color, and motion. My deep vessels, bowls and plates stand alone as works of art, yet each one is functional as well. For commissioned commemorative pieces, I work closely with clients to create a work of art that truly tells their story and conveys their feelings.”
