Cobane Studio - Margaret Cobane

I have always known, from the time I was a small child, how to harness my creativity. It's a dream-like trance that I get pulled into and then I sort of fly where it takes me, like a magic carpet ride. The great fun is not knowing the destination. Often while I am painting my hand can't keep up with my brain and I have to grab the nearest piece of paper and capture the idea before it escapes me. The most exciting part about creating something is the idea that I can't ever know what's next, it's just a fantastic wonderful mystery.

I have always loved Christmas and confess that I can not resist collecting even now that I am creating my own line of blown glass ornaments. My fascination with Christmas, nature, gardening and Santa is a recurring subject in much of my work. I especially like Santa because he is such a good, kind soul. I believe he is a symbol of goodness and generosity.

Ever since I was very young, I have been inspired by the Spirit of the holidays. My designs are created from my love of the season and all of the traditions that are dear to our hearts.
