“Black River”

Deeply embossed as an entrenched river flow expressed on lightly waved and bump glass with a beautiful high gloss that enhances this striking black painted and silver leaf foiled art, completely ready to hang. For over 30 years as a slump or gravity glass artist Michael has been creating and producing his passion for color and design with glass, winning numerous awards and recognitions for his fine art. Michael started his journey in the mid 80s working in ceramics, designing and selling with a Los Angeles, CA ceramic studio. Then in the 90s he became deeply inspired by the incredible beauty and diversity of glass so he shifted the studio’s focus from ceramics to slumping glass where he created his unique vases with the studio. By the early 2000s Michael opened his studio, allowing his art and creative interests to expand towards designing and creating incredibly beautiful large works of statement glass art on his own for walls large and small for individuals and businesses alike. Michael quickly became successful in his art business and this in and of itself fosters his creative passion through his customers’ love of his gravity glass art. As fate would have it, in 2022 Michael’s son, Robert, joined the business of creating original art. Robert brings his own set of unique skills and artistic talents to the glass art. Together, they are creating some of the most sought-after art in their studio in Northern Arizona.
