Get to Know

I'm Kit

I've been a glass etching artist for a few years now but I also draw paint design jewelry and sculpt. I've always loved fantasy and Halloween is my favorite holiday because it's so close to my birthday so these things influence a lot of my pieces. I got my start at selling my glass pieces through a pirate shop in North Hollywood which is why you will see a lot of skull & crossbones popping up in my work Dragons have fascinated me since I was a child and whenever I do a piece with a dragon on it I always take a lot of care to get it just right. Often I don't put my dragon pieces up for sale because I like to keep them but I do have one of my favorite pieces available in my shop called "Dragon's Flight". This piece took me three days to make and was done on a valuable bottle by itself. It was both sand-blasted and acid etched all the way around the bottle. I'm certain that this piece will go to just the right person someone who loves it as much as I do.

Right now I'm only doing new custom glass pieces and I'm moving on to painting and jewelry making. I've started a series of Alice in Wonderland paintings that I'm hoping people will love The originals are being hosted by Hyaena Gallery in Burbank CA (www.hyaenagallery.com) but the prints are available here on ArtFire.

If you have some time please check out all of my creations old and new at my homepage of http://www.kitsglass.net I'm working on a kitcameo website too to encompass all my artwork rather than only my glasswork but it has a ways to go yet. I will update this space once I have it finished Thank you for taking the time to learn a little bit about me ~Kit Cameo

Bio Photo Gallery

In the process of putting together a few mirror pendants. I etch each mirror first and then I hand-sculpt a frame around it.

Before I etch any design I draw the design onto the contact paper while it's already on the glass. Then I carve the design out with an xacto knife.

One of my dragon ACEOs. I actually kept these guys for myself since I didn't cut them perfectly but this gives you an idea of my dragon illustration skills.

Me in Trafalgar Square. I hope to go back to Europe again someday. I hear it's a good place for an artist to hang out.
