Artist - Wendy Blevins, Little Fly Studio LLC - explorations in kiln formed glass. www.littleflystudio.com or littleflystudio@gmail.com. Houdini Mount hanging system used.
Wendy creates a variety of unique glass art for retailers and private purchasers. She teaches classes and workshops from her home studio in beautiful Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
Her unusual name for the studio is actually a tribute to honor her Mother who was a wealth of sayings including "she wished she was a little fly on the wall to listen to what people were saying about her". Since her passing in 2004, they were visited by a little fly that does quite unfly-like things. So when naming her studio, her daughter suggested the name and it has served to keep mother's spirit close and to continue to rise within them. ❤
