About me

Gen Masunaga　(glass bead artist)
　　
　　 I began a lampwork in 2000 for fun. From 2007, I started to make glass beads in earnest as glass bead artist. My work of the past was a biologist [Ph.D. (Science)], and I studied on a ecology of sea snakes and coral reef community until 2007. Now, I live in Okinawa (Japan) that is full of nature. I want to express charm of splendid wildlife in my glass beads. Nature photos and pictures are my works of the hobby.
