NEW Pop Up & Trunk Show coming to our Wellness Campus THIS SATURDAY!
Naturally Catawba will be showcasing their beautiful glass art from 9am-3pm.
Naturally Catawba is owned by our own yoga student, Joyce Waltz whose fascination with glass began in a church pew, losing herself in a non-traditional stained glass window of flowers and a pond.
Watching the colors and movement allowed Joyce’s mind to wander,
bringing an overwhelming sense of peace.
Today, creating kiln-
fused glass provides that same meditative escape. A feeling of peace.
Joyces background as an elementary Physical Education teacher
influences her approach to art.
Far from foreign, the concepts of energy, movement, and physical transformation guide her in her studio practice and it reflects in her glass creations.
Joyce embraces the tension of the medium—taking a material that begins as rigid, fragile, and sharp, and guiding it through a high-heat transformation up to 1,600 degrees.
That is when the magic begins!
Fusing glass is a lesson in letting go. While Joyce carefully calculates colors, shapes, and patterns, the heat of the kiln ultimately
introduces an organic ebb and flow.
Opening the kiln twenty-four
hours later brings the thrilling anticipation of Christmas morning.
Operating under the name Naturally Catawba, Joyce’s work is an ongoing exploration of glass’s fluid beauty, designed to capture
the same peace that first captured her!
Naturally Catawba creates one-of-a-kind glass fusion treasures that brighten any space. Perfect gifts for yourself or someone you love!
