John Miller
Sculpture
 |
John
Miller describes his work as reflecting, “both a love of the
immediacy of the glass material and a respect for its
demanding properties.” Always interested in pushing the medium
to its limits, his work “is about control and proportion as
much as it is about finding new textures and forms.” Miller’s
roots are in the traditional Venetian style of glass blowing,
and for the past 16 years he has explored various ways of
transforming the vessel form into sculpture. Informed by the
scale and humor of Pop Art, his most recent installations
incorporate recognizable objects including various diner foods
and accoutrements.

Karen Story
Tiles
 |
A
native Oregonian, Karen Story runs her glass studio in the
hills of Southwest Portland. Working on an experimental home
project in 1996, she inadvertently developed the first fused
glass line of accent tiles using geometric shapes in the US.
The brightly colored jewels caught the eye of decorators and
designers, and soon she had a busy company, supplying her
tiles to customers across America and abroad. An innovative
designer, Karen has regularly added new color systems, shapes,
and designs to her line. She is able to do custom designs,
using client’s existing decor or color favorites as
inspiration. |
Mark Sigafoos
Sinks
 |
Each
piece Mark creates is a unique exploration of imagination,
color and shape. Mark loves the fluid motion in glassblowing
and the endless possibilities of art to create. Nature has
been his inspiration for most of his sculptures, as well as
many of Mark's other glass pieces.
Mark Sigafoos is a native of Tacoma, Washington. Because glass
is so abundant in this area Mark had always been attracted to
the art form. |
Poppy Mussallem

 |
Poppy Mussallem is a native Californian, fifth generation born
in San Francisco and she is named after our state flower the
“California Poppy”. When Poppy was about one year old, her
family moved onto a ranch at the very south end of the Santa
Cruz Mountains on Redwood Retreat Rd in Gilroy, CA. She grew
up both in the city of San Francisco and the countryside of
California.
