Buzz Blodgett
Buzz Blodgett has been blowing glass since 1969. He is from a family of artists whose glassblowing studio has flourished in the small Southern California 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.
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 full 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 of his glass is handmade using the same methods utilized since ancient times. All pieces are signed and dated.
