Glass Hand Blown Art

What makes Glass Hand Blown Art

If you need a great gift, then you should consider Hand Blown Glass Art tailored made by Lille Glassblowers. Lille Glassblowers has been creating one of a kind blown glass art in Smyrna Georgia in their glassblowing shop. Don Lillie is both an artist and the father of a family run business who makes hand blown glass art, and also makes sure the orders get processed in a timely fashion.Thom Lillie is the limitless son whose talents for creating gorgeous  glass designs is always evident in his efforts.Thom is always at the studio working on a new art piece, but somehow manages to create glass art that is unique.
Thom can be found on any day hurrying an order up so it can be shipped on time,  but he also could be found speaking with people who find themselves drawn to his studio.

Imagintive  Designs

Often, it is quite chaotic in the studio.
Blowtorches blaze as Don Lillie and Thom rush around to complete an order for a customer.
Don and Thom make amazing Art Glass which is extremely sought after by collectors.
I walked into the Lille shop one day and saw Don Lille speaking with the fire marshal of Smyrna. As I got closer, I could hear them speaking about a particular award for a brave firefighter who risked his life doing his duty.
The fire marshal and Don finally settle on an award that catches the essence of a brave firefighter, which was a fire axe.

Making Art from Glass

Making glass blown art is a challenge, when you must make sure to keep it spectacular, and keep you clients happy.
This is why often an “idea” ends up becoming a very different and tailored made figure.
Thom and Don must conform to making items for resale, in other words, pieces that are generally bought, but they still end up making lots of work that just satisfies their artistic juices.

Don and Thom can think up a sketch for somebody, and design it into a tremendous sculpture.
Often, Thom can use his dreams to flow into his glass artwork and create a masterpiece from a simple piece of glass.
Thom’s background is in scientific glassblowing, which means that many of his sketches are not attempted by any other glassblowing artist.
Blowing glass bubbles is not what Thom does, but rather use very small pieces of glass, his breath and a blowtorch to create his masterpieces.
Scientific glassblowers often use their knowledge to make beakers or coiling, so that is what truly makes Thom distinctive because he uses his abilities to create glass works of art.
