Not sure how many people have been following the progress of local glass artist Evan Schauss. He started learning how to blow glass for Hilltop Artist in residence and has quickly moved up in ranks blowing glass all over the world, Iceland, Hawaii, New Mexico, etc. I’ve been fortunate enough to know him since we starting blowing glass at around the same time. I had a chance to check out his new site which launched a few weeks ago and he has become phenomenal. Check out a few of his latest works from his gallery, pretty crazy!

Also checkout this cool video he worked with Claire on, its a video of his “Walking on glass” series
