Welcome back to Cracked with Chevonne Ariss! Today is the 60th episode!
Today, we have the pleasure of speaking with Heather Dawn, a super talented stained glass artist who splits her time between Phoenix Arizona and her hometown of New York. Heather began her journey into stained glass in 2015, learning the art alongside her mother.
Her fused and stained glass work is heavily inspired by American traditional tattooing and the southwest; The bold black outlines characteristic of traditional tattoos making a perfect match for the solder lines used in stained glass.
Heather’s glass journey, like many of us is complex, where her deeply personal life experience, her grief and joy, is intricately woven in with her personal style.
In this episode, we'll dive into Heather's story and the techniques she uses to bring her striking visions to life.
Join me as I crack it all wide open…

For the glass cutting hack that Heather shared that she had made a video for, she also sent me a photo, I just posted that photo on my website on her episode page, so take a look:
For the Patreon page members Heather made one of her super cute painted horseshoes, measurements are about 4” wide by 5” tall. Drawing will be 12 days after the release of this episode.
