About Teri and Steve Zimmerman and the Silvermoon Art Glass Studio
Life and art partners, Steve and Teri Zimmerman have always pushed the limits when it comes to art in glass. Teri is the "artist, dreamer, and sand carver" part of the pair. Steve is the "inventor, technician, and craftsmen." Together we have designed and installed pieces throughout the US, Canada, and Japan - both in flatwork and sculpted dimensional thick carved glass.
In the past, we have been very broad in our work with glass. Now we are focusing on our passions and our statements while still designing for personal commission. We are currently involved with environmentally worthy causes and fund raising through art to help give back a little of what we all take in everyday.

Art education never happened for me in the form of a traditional classroom. I have come to realize that my inherited traits and the surrounding of creative adults as I grew up, along with my curiosity and wide open eyes were my training. With a strong desire to earn a living in the field of art and raise a family, I needed to push myself beyond my knowledge. There are no limitations when it comes to the strength of your imagination. Commission work for the past 27 years has been a driving force and enabled me to study and research styles, architecture, and nature and well as meet some incredible people. Art has taken me to places that I would have never beeen both physically and mentally. Art is basic to life itself.

I’ll have to admit up front that showing my artistic side was not a natural happening for me. Thanks to the patience of my trade and those around me, I have been able to apply all of my practical and life knowledge for the past 30 years - doing it the hard way-my way. I am really having fun with my acquired talents - working hard, being the inventor, perfectionist. This is not hard for me...growing into being an artist was. I hope that everyone enjoys what my wife, Teri and I are creating these days. We truly enjoy it.
