Jamie Barthel
Jamie Barthel's passion for painting has grown from an art career that spans twenty-five
years. With a background in Graphic Art and Textile Design, and an education in Fine Art &
Psychology, Jamie's passion for painting has been a constant since she was just a toddler.
"From a very young age, drawing became almost a compulsion for me. I would doodle on
napkins in restaurants and during the sermon at church. In fact, my very first job was at the
age of eight or nine years old, when a member of the congregation peered over my shoulder
and saw me drawing pictures of clowns. The woman enlisted me to design a handful of
posters for the upcoming children's bazaar."
Most recently, Jamie has focused most of her creative energy into being the exclusive
designer of Lotus Glass, reverse painted pendant chandeliers, lamps, sconces, and lanterns.
Her collection is ever-growing and ever-changing.
"Painting is like digging for buried treasure. If you can envision the possibility that there is
something there, beneath the surface, it's only a matter of digging long enough to see what
you can pull out. "
