Michael Moore was introduced to the world of stained glass over 40 years ago. Even though he enjoyed the medium, pressures of life eventually took him away from his artistic pursuits. About 16 years ago Michael was able to get back into working with glass and he was immediately drawn to the fused glass process. He was fascinated with being able to shape glass by heating to extreme temperatures, mixing different colors, and seeing what forms he could create with it.
He found that he could produce large sculptures and edge-lit works of art as well as exquisite bowls, trays and vases. For the last 15 years Michael has shown his work in juried art shows around the Southwest, where it has been well received. His designs have won awards in various art shows, including 3 consecutive years at the Ruidoso Art & Wine Festival.
