Gray Parrot Glass Studio is dedicated to the advancement and appreciation of glass arts, including lampworking, fusing, and slumping. Valerie Logan, glass artist and Gray Parrot owner, has studied glass lampworking with Lewis Wilson of Crystal Myths, Inc. of New Mexico and with internationally known glass artist Loren Stump ( I have taken Loren's class 4 times because it is so fun)! She has also taken a class with Suellen Fowler who is known for her beautiful glass vessels and her expertise in color mixing with mineral oxides. Valerie also spent two weeks in Murano Italy. While there she participated in classes taught by Italian glass masters Lucio Bubacco and Vittorio Costantini. She also brings the paperweight expertise of Chris Buzzini to her lampwork, having studied under his expert tutelage.
