Tara Marsh was born and raised in rural Ontario, instilling in her a love for the outdoors and nature. Her success in the Sheridan Institute of technology and Advanced Learning, Art Fundamentals program encouraged her curiosity in the exploration of a new art form in the Glass Studio. The creative process in her art pieces begins by brainstorming, using the textures, colours and forms of nature. There is a saying by John Opie that states: "Art is more godlike than science. Science discovers; art creates", Tara states that working with glass is a science and you never stop discovering the intricate characteristics of glass. In spite of being better able to understand and control it, the art pieces are often unique and unpredictable. Tara has developed a love for the medium of glass and continually strives to improve her skills.
