Thursdays on the Coast, Artwalk

HomeLife Village Realtors & Art Gallery presents:

Glass Artist, Carol Korfin

Carlsbad, July 8, 2011, In a little know art enclave in Carlsbad, HomeLife Village Realtors & Art Gallery has a real surprise for visitors.  They have art incorporated into their business.  A gallery within, that has 7 artists.  One of which is  Carol Korfin – a.k.a. The Glass Giraffe.

Featured for the month of August 201 and creating one-of-a-kind fused glass art, Carol Korfin chose her company name by “fusing” her love of all things giraffe with her love of glass art.  She has a giraffe collection numbering over 150 pieces in her home.

Living in San Diego since 1981, she has been driven by passion for designing.  Carol became hooked on glass and began creating more pieces than her hands (and kiln) could handle.  Each glass art piece is created and designed from a wonderful imagination using the finest quality glass.  Using  a variety of glass types – such as translucent, opaque, dichroic, iridescent, frit, millefiore, confetti, rods, stringers and noodles, her pieces are limited only by what imagination inspires and the size of her  kiln, which happens to be pretty big.

Pendants, bowls, wall creations and decorative pieces are created for the most discerning buyer and can be found year-round  in several galleries in San Diego County. 

Currently in the Art Gallery at HomeLife Village, Carlsbad, you can enjoy the window display filled with glass art , the Off Track Gallery, located in the Lumberyard Center, Encinitas and The Find Gallery in the Fallbrook Art Center, Fallbrook, CA, also house her collections.  Come by and browse a multitude of creations and muse at the reflections in the glass.

Stop by, on July 28^th for Thursdays at the Coast-Artwalk,  which is presented by Homelife Village Realtors & Art Gallery located at 500 Grand Ave., Carlsbad, CA
