Hi, I’m Liz, a self-taught stained glass artist based in Allentown, PA, specializing in fantasy and sci-fi inspired work.

I came to the medium in 2021 with a background in painting and makeup artistry, and developed a style that combines traditional glasswork with hand-painted detail directly on the glass. That combination, along with a heavy use of iridescent glass, has become the foundation of my work.

Fantasy and sci-fi have always felt like a natural fit for stained glass. The medium has always been about storytelling and symbolism, and these genres are basically our modern mythology, so the pairing makes more sense than people expect. That’s led to some meaningful collaborations, including designing officially licensed pieces for Sarah J. Maas and working with Pierce Brown’s team on Red Rising inspired work.

Every piece is designed, cut, ground, painted, and soldered by hand in my studio. Depending on complexity, a single piece can take anywhere from 8 to 72 hours, sometimes longer. Stained glass can’t be mass produced; every piece is completely one of a kind, and I think that makes them that much more special. My process usually starts with whatever I’m reading, a line or image will catch me, I’ll sketch it out, and build from there.
