About the artist
Hello! My name is Sarah Mobsby I have been in Portland, Maine since 2005 and have fallen in love with this city. It is a city of community, art, inspiration, and support. I came here to pursue and complete my bachelors in small business and entrepreneurship management within a city that had a true sense of community. I was first exposed to glass art by managing at a downtown glass retail shop. Working with local artists and selling their art everyday peaked my interest and inspired me to get behind a torch myself. I started my flame-working adventure by taking a bead-making class at a local art school. From there I started working side-by-side with my partner in 2010, a veteran of the borocilicate glass industry. I made the leap into becoming a full time artist working out of Royal River Glass in 2012 before we opened up a studio of our own in downtown Portland. I will say years later, time has passed, and I am still very happy with my career :)
