Patricia Punykova
Patricia Punykova was born in Chicago, raised in Minneapolis, and grew up in 1980's Seattle. She studied patternmaking and apparel design at SCCC in Seattle (1984) and worked for designers and garment manufacturers on the west coast for 15 years. She returned to Minneapolis in 2002, and began to dabble in stained glass, which led to purchasing her first kiln in 2010. She studied kiln-formed and cast glass at Pilchuck Glass School, Foci MCGA, Corning Studios, and at Bullseye Resource Center, Portland. Patricia taught privately from her studio in Northeast Minneapolis (2013-15). A full-time studio artist since 2010, Patricia combines fine metals, leather, and glass to create jewelry-art pieces for all genders.
