Artist, Carol Korfin – a.k.a. The Glass Giraffe at Homelife Village Realtors and Art Gallery

July 10, 2011 - PRLog -- Featuring glass artist, Carol Korfin, who just happened to chose her company name by “fusing” her love of all things giraffe with her love of glass art.

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.

Active in numerous organizations; Coastal Artists; the Art Glass Association of Southern California in Spanish Village, Balboa Park; San Diego Museum of Art Artists Guild in Balboa Park; Allied Artists Association of San Diego; North County Society of Fine Arts; and Oceanside Museum of Art’s Artist Alliance, she consistently seeks outlets for her wonderful creations.  Proud of her pieces, she looks forward to you having one of her whimsical creations go home to live with you.

Gary is happy to have filled his location with art, now covering all his walls in his business, with hopes to entice customers to browse and enjoy talking about their home needs.”It is great fun to see what these artists can create”, Gary states.  He is proud to have selected the 8 artists he currently has.

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