Artists & Designers
David L. Lindsay: is the glass artist/gaffer for Lindsay Art Glass. Born and raised in Vallejo, California, he graduated from St. Patrick High School in 1975. He apprenticed at Nourot Glass Studio beginning in 1976. Over the following six years, David advanced from apprentice to assistant glass blower to gaffer. David became proficient in all aspects of the glass production process from mixing batch to monitoring the melting process to blowing pieces to grinding pieces during the years in Nourot Glass Studio. David was a partner in Nourot Glass Studio from January 1, 1982 to December 31, 1997. In 1998, David and his wife, Ann Lindsay, started Lindsay Art Glass. David's unique designs have an artistry that leaves the realm of realism and explores the abstract. Employing the technique of compound layering, David often incorporates glass murrinis, dichroic glass, gold and/or silver into his paperweights and vessels. His "Undersea Adventures" paperweights and vessels take the compound layering technique to another artistic realm. In 1997, David was nominated by his fellow glass artists to serve as a juror for the American Crafts Council. In the summer of 1998, David attended the world famous Pilchuck Glass School, and in the summer of 1999 he attended Haystack School of Mountain Crafts. David is a member of the Glass Art Society, Arts Benicia, Paperweight Collectors Association, Chamber of Commerce, Association of Clay and Glass Artists and American Crafts Council.
