A number of years ago I received an e-mail inquiry asking if I could get a replacement for the colorful hand blown glass vase. I was sent an image of a large vase with vibrant yellow, red, blue, green, and purple. I thought I had seen a similar piece, but couldn't remember where. I sent the image to some gallery owners, and glass artists I knew, but didn't have an luck in finding the artists. I had to tell my potential customer that "sadly I couldn't help them".
It wasn't until two years ago that I finally ran into the artists. I was at the ACRE craft show in Philadelphia. I was so happy to locate them, and finally see their entire line of glass work. When I said colorful I wasn't kidding. It was a lot to take in and came close to an overdose of color and excitement. Not only were the colors exciting, but the shapes, texture, and feel of the vases was absolutely capturing.
The first order was sold quickly and I soon developed loyal following of Mad Art Glass fans. I just included their latest shipment in my monthly newsletter, and right away I received requests for their pieces. Every time I reorder I add more pieces from their line, but they are difficult to keep in stock.
If you are looking for art glass to bring you joy, deliver you from the doldrums, or just liven up your day. Mad art will deliver. I am really looking forward to my next order.
