Buzz Blodgett  ( https://blodgettglass.com/pages/about )


Buzz has been blowing glass since 1969. He is from a family of

artists. The family glassblowing studio flourished in the small Southern

California artist beach community of Leucadia. Blodgett Glass has

produced many lines starting with the "Music In Glass" line of bells and

windchimes (1972-1982) followed by "Bubble Lites" (1975), "Space Lites"

(1977) and "Sea Foam (1981). These lines continually evolved and were

refined over the years and in 1978 an important Swedish influence was

discovered.


Buzz learned many new techniques from the Swedish glassblower and

currently uses them in many of his glass creations. He says “I was

always impressed with the frozen liquidity of glass, which seemed to

mesh with my love for the ocean and surfing.” In 1987 he took over the

operation of Blodgett Glass in California. He has had exhibitions at the

Corning Museum and has exhibited his glass in galleries in Seattle,

California and New York since 1975. All his glass is handmade using the

same methods utilized since ancient times and it is signed and dated.
