Glass artist Brian Brodowsky started his career in Dentistry 35 years ago. After retirement, he looked for artistic ways to spend his time. Working with glass is clean, precise and detailed... what a perfect fit! Glass fusing is the process of joining compatible sheet glasses together in a kiln until the glass fuses at approximately 1490 degrees Fahrenheit. Fusing glass offers a myriad of possibilities for creating both functional pieces and artwork with color and form. Each piece presented was handmade in his home studio in Desert Hot Springs. He has enjoyed this hobby for some time and also enjoys sharing it with others.

I've been painting as long as I can remember. I was 8 when my grandma finally allowed me to sit in on her art classes, so I started my art journey in grandma's tole painting class, using oil paints. Through my education and careers, I continued to paint. I began using acrylics, and painted on furniture, walls, wood, and textiles. I've painted on just about every surface that will take paint (and a few that didn't). "Artist" is my superhero persona; "teacher" is my day job. I am fortunate to teach video production to high school students. My classroom walls look more like a gallery than a classroom, and I tend to attract many artists as students. I do hope you enjoy browsing my body of work. And, if you are inclined, reach out and say hi through email. I'm happy to answer questions, or just chat! My art business has been designated as a "Trusted Art Seller" with The Art Storefronts Organization, which means you can shop with confidence, and know that I stand behind the quality and value of my products.
