Girls who play with fire
Fire Arts Vermont is a collaboration between Randi Solin and Natalie Blake,
each successful artists for
over 35 years and at the
top of their crafts.
Randi Solin
Award-winning master glassblower with 30 years of glassblowing experience, Randi's work is featured in the permanent collections of the White House, United States Embassies, and in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, A frequent exhibitor at juried shows around the country, she has too many “best in show” awards to fit here!
Her world-class studio is open to visitors, with comfortable arena seating close enough to the action to feel the heat, ask questions, and dialogue with the team about the process. Visit Randi’s Website
Natalie Blake
Natalie’s exploration of the ceramic arts has deepened over three decades into a thriving studio producing large public art and residential projects in sculptural tile. Although she still creates the singular vessels that began her career as a successful artist, her designs in textured, dynamic tiles and pods have created completely new possibilities on very large scales.
The ceramic studio is open for tours, where you may see anything from a small kitchen backsplash to a 60 foot wall on the production tables. Visit Natalie’s Website
