Devlin Warren, the glass artist and owner of Nightshade Glassworks, is developing his career in glassblowing on a foundation of a life in
the arts. As a Technical Director for numerous Stage Productions he has designed and operated lights and
sound, designed and built sets and props and managed stage crews. He also has a lifelong love of a wide
range of musical genres and art forms.
 Over the years, Devlin has developed a passion and
fascination for working with borosilicate glass. The special properties of this
material provide the artist
with a challenging multiplicity of possible shapes as well as a
gorgeous palette of colors.
| "As a glass artist, my passion is to make glass more accessible to everyone. As the oldest man-made material on Earth, it is considered to have become somewhat mundane over the centuries. We utilize glass... see through glass... touch glass every day, and often overlook its potential as an artistic medium. I hope that everyone will have an opportunity to see this material as a dynamic and moving substance, which can be manipulated into wonderful, encapsulated ideas. I try to honor this concept when I make my pendants. Some are Flowers, with their own unique surroundings, others are "Spirits" that have been captured in the glass, and some are chaotic Maelstroms that spin into the distance. Every piece I make is out of my head, and is one of a kind. I hope you enjoy my work. Each piece is truly a labor of love." - Dev |
