Lampwork Art

This blog will periodically give tips and show off the beauty in glass created by lampwork artists of today.

The top 2 photos are beads made by Leah Fairbanks.

Leah began her career in glass in 1982 with studies at the prestigious Pilchuck School of Glass, and The Colton Glass School.

She travels around the world passing her techniques on to those of us new to the art of lampworking.

Leah and Kim Osibin make some of the most beautiful glass canes I have seen to date. Leah and Kim taught together for a number of years.

If you are lucky enough to be in an area to take classes from either of these ladies. I suggest you do so.
