With a passion for the transformative power of glass, I am Laird Morgan, a self taught Artist with 35 years of experience in the luminous world of glass Art. My journey into this captivating medium was sparked by a lifelong appreciation for design, a deep understanding of color, and a love for the timeless beauty of antique glass. As a creator working in stained, fused and mosaic glass I draw inspiration from the masters of the craft- the revolutionary artistry of Louis Comfort Tiffany, the pristine elegance of Steuben, and the breathtaking organic forms of Dale Chihuly.

My work is a vibrant dance between the whimsical and the real. I delight in crafting pieces that range from playful, imaginative to stunningly realistic glass portraits that capture the essence of their subjects. To achieve this, I utilize a rich palette of glass in it’s many variations, from translucent and opaque to textured and iridescent. Each piece is a testament to a meticulous and patient process often taking weeks to complete as I carefully select, cut and assemble the glass to bring my vision to life.

The core of my artistic practice is the desire to transform reality into a radiant glass portrait, imbuing each creation with a life of it’s own. My ultimate goal is to craft beautiful glass Art that not only enhances it’s surroundings but also deeply resonates with the beholder, bringing a touch of enduring beauty and wonder in to their lives.
