Cynthia Myers Glass
Cynthia is in love with her work, oddly it took her many years to appreciate her own talent and to feel confident that she could create beautiful pieces of art. If you look back at her beginnings, she always had the talent to draw and re create her artwork on glass with expertise. She can now can say with confidence that she has a unique talent and is a gifted glass etch artist.
First Cynthia begins with hand- blown glass by Slow Burn Glass who design shapes and color combinations specifically for Cynthia to etch. She covers this glass with sandblasting tape, draws her artwork on the tape, then she cuts the tape with a razor. She sandblasts through the glass, cutting the lip away, changing the shape, and pulling the tape pieces one at a time to create the art.
Cynthia started sandblasting glass using her father's compressor in the barnyard of his farm in Northern California more than 30 years ago. She worked in the glass etch studios of Mary Alice Hawke and Valerie Surjan in Chico in the 80's before starting her own studio and business. She has shown in galleries all over the country and her art glass is collected worldwide.
Customer Reviews
I like buying from Artful Home because I know my purchase will be handmade and made to order. I have admired Cynthia Myers's work for several years, so when I received the email about a 20 percent-off sale, I decided now was the time to buy one of her creations. After looking carefully at all of her work, I still preferred Humpback Whale Family. It's strikingly impressive in its beauty and workmanship.
My purchase was securely packed in two boxes, with protective layers of foam pieces and bubble wrap. UPS delivered it in perfect condition, with delivery before the promised date. Humpback Whale Family is on my glass-top coffee table. I recommend Cynthia's work to anyone interested in collecting unique glass art.
This is an extraordinary piece with beautiful col and exquisite details. It is showcased in our home's library.
I love it - just what I wanted !! Beautiful workmanship.
Honestly, this bowl will blow your mind! The detail is incredible while the cut out work on the lip creates a piece that is so unique you will never find another even close to this. The blue shade is indeed a steel blue which is rather less intense than pictured on the website but so lovely just the same. I knew the size as it is included in the description but the actual piece seems more substantial. The light coming through the bowl is heavenly and accentuates the gorgeous etching. Stunning!
