Beauty, form, balance, and abstraction are the qualities present throughout the work of a contemporary glass artist Michael Scott Rozell. His art combines the admiration for traditional Italian and Swedish glass techniques with a modern American design sensibility. Designers such as Frank Lloyd Wright, George Nelson, Harry Bertoia, and Charles Eames, provide a source of inspiration for Rozell’s beautiful pieces recognizable for their clean lines, soothing yet vibrant colors, and simplicity of form.

“Laboring in the intense heat of the furnace, manipulating the molten glass with tools which have not changed in thousands of years, I strive to create works of harmony and beauty which will long outlive myself.” (Michael Scott Rozell - www.rozellglass.com)
