Joshua Tracy Glass has been creating handcrafted glass art in the Baltimore area for nearly 20 years. He uses traditional and modern Venetian and American glassblowing techniques to create hand-blown ornaments, pumpkins, paperweights, flowers, vases, bowls, lighting fixtures and custom commissions.
