Lynda Sprecher Studio

Lynda Sprecher

I have worked in many art media including ceramics, watercolor, and stained glass. Although I am enchanted by the many manifestations of art, I find the culmination of my expression in fused glass. For me, the rich texture of ceramics, the fluid motion of watercolor, and dynamic hues of stained glass, are all present in the design and issue of fused glass.

In addition, fusing allows me a unique relationship of give-and-take with my art. Fusing glass is about constant negotiation. The artist has control over the glass at the same time that the glass controls the artist. The final piece is the result of harmony between the glass and the artist. This medium can be unpredictable; glass is fragile yet there is strength and flexibility. As both artist and technician, I have the initial vision of the piece, but in the end, the glass has the final say.

My studio is located in Lake Oswego, Oregon where I have developed a varied portfolio of work ranging from plates, wall pieces and tiles to communion sets and tabletops. Each piece is custom made and is unique in style and intention.
