My name is Maria Elena Haynie. I'm a 26 year old Arizona native. I've been married for 6 years and have 3 wonderful children. I am an elementary school teacher by profession, but my passion has always been sculpting. The moment I heard about lampworking from my friend Jodi Price at Beadworx.com, I was certain that this was for me! I knew I would love it and I immediately began imagining the things I could sculpt in the fire! I have been sculpting since I was in preschool. One time my sister and I made play dough cheese and put it on a saltine cracker, and as far as I could tell, my dad actually thought it was real and ate it! I think that was the beginning of my love for all sculpting mediums! Although I haven't had too many classes, I have found lots of ways to meet my addiction for sculpting: play dough, modeling clay, Sculpey (polymer clay), clay ceramics, porcelain doll making, silver solder, lost wax, and now… Lampworking!
