Joshua N. Kitchen was born in Hendersonville, North Carolina in 1976. He attended Brevard College where he studied classical guitar and 2 dimensional art. Joshua is a self taught artist who has been flame working
glass since 2000. With no formal glass training he learned his lessons by watching others (thanks Phil and Veda Bickley), trial and error, and by using imagination to create techniques true to himself. He uses his background in music, art, and science to develop the style he utilizes in his artistic ventures. Josh is a member of GAS, has taught private lessons, and displays his works in local galleries. In his spare time he enjoys creating for charity, spending time with family, playing music, and skateboarding.
“My art is a reflection of self, of my interpretation of the world around me, and a daily challenge of vision, technique, skill, and patience. I am proud to be affiliated with a group whose mission continues to evolve towards the never ending progression of our medium."
