Colleen began working in glass over 25 years ago, through the medium of stained glass. Her interests gradually expanded to glass fusing, lampworking, and finally to furnace glassblowing. She currently creates work using all of these techniques. She especially enjoys making glass beads and jewelry at the torch, and sculptural items at the furnace. Colleen has taken classes at The Studio of the Corning Mus

One day in 2007, Colleen said “You should try glassblowing… it’s fun!”, and that was the beginning of their partnership in creating objects from molten glass. Gary’s interest (addiction?) in glass has grown to building the studio and exploring all aspects of hot glass. He enjoys the craft and the art of glassblowing, making both traditional functional and decorative objects. Gary has taken classes at The Studio of The Corning Museum of Glass, Snow Farm New England Craft Program, Worcester Center for Craft, and the Pittsburgh Glass Center.
