Hayley Tsang Sather and Helen Tsang are sisters whose backgrounds in architecture, fine art, and graphic design lead them to transform their creative energy into material form. In 2012, Helen decided to devote more time to her love of music. She performs in the cello section of the San Francisco Civic Symphony – a community orchestra that gives free concerts in San Francisco quarterly.

Their San Francisco lampworked glass and artisan jewelry studio is named enVision for their motto – we live to create; we love to envision.

Hayley has a fine arts background with a BFA from the University of Hawaii and a MFA from Yale University. She has had her own graphic design studio for over 30 years in San Francisco. Her art and crafts background enabled her to explore many mediums – from drawing, painting, and sculpture in her younger years to photography, ceramics, woodworking later. More recently, she has been exploring metal, fiber, and leather.

In 2006 she, along with Helen, discovered the magic of glass while searching for interesting beads to incorporate into their jewelry. Hayley has had the privilege of studying under many inspiring artists and most notably with Vittorio Costantini, Gianni Toso, Loren Stump, Elena Hernburg, Shane Fero, and Davide Penso.

Hayley has spent a great deal of time exploring silver glass – soda lime glass laden with silver and other metals – and has written, taught, and authored tutorials on the subject. Although working with silver glass is her passion, her obsession is executing a perfect form, such as a slender bicone, a tube, an olive, a barrel, or a sphere.

Hayley thrives in being outside her comfort zone and is continually exploring. Her endeavors in her flameworking journey include wearable "marbles," humongous blown hollows, giant-hole rings, intricate stringer and dot decoration, and embellishments.

Early 2014, Hayley rekindled her passion for knitting after discovering the fiber site, Ravelry. She has started enVision, a group "For knitters with discriminating taste for luxury yarns and exceptional patterns, primarily in challenging designs" and delved into the exciting world of lace shawl designs.

About the same time, Hayley began taking metalsmithing classes at her local community college and continues to explore its many interesting techniques. She hopes to one day combine her glass, fiber, wire works, woodworking, and metalsmithing skills into fun and exciting objet d'art!

Hayley draws her inspiration from her fine arts training of design, color, texture, composition, abstraction, juxtaposition, and interpretation.

Hayley taught flameworking both in the United States and worldwide. During the 2020 pandemic shelter-in-place period, Hayley launched enVision Virtual Workshop Portal with her first class, Explore the Magic of Silver Glass, reaching students worldwide with the online teaching platform. She continues to create courses for this venue.

Hayley lives in San Francisco with her husband. While not being creative with her many endeavors, Hayley is on the pickleball courts enjoying fun games with her friends.
