Rocio Bearer
Glass artist Rocio Bearer studied and trained in Venezuela,
Colombia and the United States to learn the skills she uses
today. After receiving the honor of Featured Artist at the
prestigious Venezuela School of Art - Candido Millan, she
has lectured and taught stained glass, painting, fusing and
lampworking. Rocio is considered a pioneer of modern art
glass in her native Venezuela and noted for introducing a
variety of new glass techniques.
Rocio owned and operated a glass art studio / retail store
in Valencia, Venezuela for 13 years before she met her
husband on a trip to the Untied States to buy glass
supplies. She moved to the United States in the year 2000
and opened a studio in Cocoa, Florida. Among all things
that she loves about glass, it is teaching that motivates her
to keep exploring new techniques. It is common to find her
taking pictures of flowers and drawing out rough sketches
of her next creation. Her love of nature and all of it's
intricate creations is a great influence and inspiration in
her art. She really enjoys sharing her knowledge with other
artists teaching classes in her Florida studio as well as other
studios throughout the United States and South America.
