My name is Sue Breitweiser, owner and founder of Sun's Up Studios. I moved to the Florida Keys 15 years ago from South Jersey. I worked as a waitress in Key West for 11 years with dreams of doing something artistic. I was always drawn to dichroic glass. I had a pendant from a local artist and would always beg him to make me matching earrings, but he didn't make earrings. He taught me the basics of dichroic glass, and the rest is self-taught. Figuring I would make my own earrings. When I did, my friends loved them and wanted me to make them some too. Three months later, I was doing pop-up markets. Fast forward three years, and I am excited to be filling the Shady Palm art gallery with my dichroic glass jewelry. Feeling extremely blessed.
