Sarah Cawn’s mission is to design and create beautiful, unique, and functional glass objects.
Initially using Tiffany stained glass techniques, Sarah has evolved into creating original fused glass works of art. Her innovative use of color, shapes and whimsical designs never fail to engage the viewer. She is fascinated by the captivating power of light’s interaction with glass, showing the beauty of the color spectrum. This quality has inspired her to explore many aspects of the glass medium and transform ordinary functional objects into unique innovative art treasures.
Sarah’s beautiful art objects incorporate unique colors and create a dance of light that delights viewers and collectors nationwide. (Source: sarahsglassart.com)
Sarah's work can be found online and at Bel Air Art Center, Rocky Mount, NC

Artist Spotlight: Peggy Van Arnam
Peggy Van Arnam has been making jewelry since she found herself with a skirt with which she had “nothing to wear.” During her career as a university administrator, she searched for unusual beads and stones as she traveled and made jewelry for herself and her family. In retirement she began taking classes, selling her pieces and approaching jewelry making as a business. Thus Uniquely Yours! was born. In 2002 Peggy co-founded a still thriving cooperative gallery in Upstate New York and remained a member until moving to Cary in 2016.
Uniquely Yours! specializes in sterling, glass and gemstone jewelry. Using these materials, Peggy creates one-of-a-kind necklaces, bracelets and earrings. She is perhaps best known for her sterling chains and her work with Venetian glass. Many pieces of jewelry have a story behind them; some are custom designed. And making pieces longer or shorter to suit the customer is a common occurrence. After all, making it uniquely yours is what it’s all about! (source: carygalleryofartists.org)
Peggy's work can be found at Cary Gallery of Artists in lovely downtown Cary, NC and at Cazenovia Artisans, Cazenovia, New York.

Artist Spotlight: Theresa Raines
Theresa is an intuitive abstract artist, creating vibrant art for memorable spaces. She specializes in mixed media, using acrylics, spray paint, ink, adhesives, and paper. Her work refuses to be contained and often extends beyond the edges of the canvas.
Theresa's process has her working on multiple pieces simultaneously, flowing from one canvas to the next with big athletic strokes. She often incorporates fluid art techniques and decoupage for layered effects. Preferring to work on a large scale, Theresa enjoys developing customized art for specific spaces and audiences.
Theresa believes color and shapes can inspire and energize and her goal is to make happy art that will make a space come to life and radiate positive energy.
Born in Sweden and emigrated to the US, where she is now a naturalized US citizen. (Source: adapted from artbytheresaraines.com)
Theresa's work can be found online and in several commercial buildings in the Triangle.
