Terri Albanese

Painting with Glass
It began in 2006 with the breathtaking mosaics in Italy—they completely captivated me. And, after studying the classical setting of mosaics in 2007 at the Miami Mosaic Academy, Miami, Florida, it was my desire to create an original style—a style that was new, fresh, and truly unique, one that would emulate my illustration style and give me the freedom to paint with glass.  My glass paintings can be found in personal and corporate collections throughout the United States, Hong Kong, and Israel.
