Kim  

My name is Kerstin, but about everybody calls me Kim.

I was born and raised in Germany and studied History of Arts at the University in Berlin. My other fields of interest in an academic sense are Ethnology, Anthropology and, lately, Physics (although, regrettably, I did not pay much attention to it in High School and therefore I am missing about all of the basics).

So now that we have established that I might be a little odd, we can move on ...

 
     

My two great passions are animals and glass. As you can see, this web site is saturated with glass, so don't worry, you will definitely not get around it. But first, let me get to the animals.

I am, by professions, a veterinary nurse. The official term for it here in the US is "Licensed Veterinary Technician" or LVT and although the job is somewhat technical, I think 'nurse' would have been a much better terminology. But I would love to be an artist when I grow up !!!

 
 
I am host to three ferrets and one dog. My dog Max (that is him there on the right) is getting very old and is accumulating more and more diseases, syndromes and conditions. So My days are scheduled mostly around him (aside from the fact that he is a 'velcro dog' and permanently attached to me anyway). My three weasels are called Loki, Wally and Boris and, naturally, are challenging me every day with new mischief.
 
I have always had some kind of crafty hobby but when I tried out stained glass a number of years back, I was hooked. Stained glass led to mosaics and then fused glass. I used to create a lot of portraits of animals in whichever technique I was working at the time. Today, I am concentration on fused glass jewelry (which is really hard to do when I would really love to do all of the above.
 
The pictures on the left are from before I found my current style of fused glass jewelry. As you can see, you may call it my 'brown phase' or 'the earthen period' =)
