From Zines to Zinc with Jaclyn Miller of Assembly Glassworks

Cracked with Chevonne Ariss

Today’s guest is Jaclyn Miller of Assembly Glassworks. She is a contemporary stained glass artist working and living in Arvada, CO. Originally from Orlando, FL, Jaclyn earned her BA in Art and Art History with a concentration in Mixed Media from Stetson University. She has explored many mediums since then, most notably minicomics and illustration, which continue to inform her approach to her glass. Her works center around themes of nostalgia and memory, with influences from pop art and culture and although she’s only been doing glass for 3 years, her fanbase reflects someone who has the experience of a lifetime!
All right let’s get into it…
Join me as I crack it all wide open!
To see more of Jaclyn’s work, her instagram is @assemblyglassworks and her website is assemblyglassworks.com.
For the Cracked Patreon page, Jaclyn is kindly gifting one of her original thought bubble pieces in a surprise color way that says “no” to a lucky winner. I’ll be doing a drawing for that piece December 4th 2022 on my instagram stories and of course emailing the winner directly as well to let them know, That is 12 days after this episode is released.
