About the Artist: Lynn Holman
I've always loved glass and have been attracted to the colors and designs. A great deal of my life has been spent as a glass enthusiast, viewing glass as I traveled through the U.S. and Europe, where I lived for a few years. In fact, the first pieces I purchased were fused glass dishes in Venice, one of my favorite cities!
When I moved back to the U.S., I lived in Seattle, the glass capital of the U.S. -- home to Dale Chihuly, the Pilchuck School of Glass, Tacoma Glass Museum and many great glass artists. Even after I moved away, I would still travel back for the glass!
Eventually, I decided to act on my passion. I took my first fused glass class and was hooked. My advertising background served me well with a creative but balanced approach to design and colors. With all the different forms of glass, there's so much room to experiment. What I enjoy most is creating designs of my own, combining the colors that I love. I hope you enjoy the work too!

Goal of Complete Satisfaction
As an artist, I want you to be completely satisfied with the fused glass art and jewelry that you purchase.
- I accept exchanges or returns within 14 days as long as the item is in the same condition as it was when purchased
- I am willing to make commission pieces that meet your design and color needs
- For jewelry, if the piece you purchased ever becomes defective over time (e.g. the wire on the wrapped heart pendant is snagged or a bail becomes loose), please let me know and I will be happy to fix it.
History of Classes, Shows & Memberships
I am relatively new to fusing. Below is a partial list of classes I have taken. In addition, my glass education has been supplemented by reading books and learning through the Warm Glass Board, an online resource for all things kiln-formed.
