“Each piece I make is a unique exploration of imagination, color and shape.  I love the fluid motion in glassblowing and the endless possibilities of art to create.  Nature has been my inspiration for most of my sculptures, as well as many of my other glass pieces.”

Mark Sigafoos is a native of Tacoma, Washington. Because glass is so abundant in this area Mark had always been attracted to the art form. He was first introduced to glassblowing in 1997 at The Seattle Glassblowing Studio. Here, he took beginner to advance classes throughout the year. At that time his instructor Jon Bennett introduced him to Martin Blank, James Nowak and Jennifer Holmes. The next three years he worked in these studios, as well as with the Jim Mongrain studio on the Chihuly Belagio Ceiling Project.  In 1999 Mark moved from Seattle to San Diego and began working full time on his glass. During the seven years Mark spent in California he refined his skills and create a signature look for his glass.  Mark and his wife Jeannine moved back to the Northwest in July of 2006 to open Tacoma Glassblowing Studio.

In the last few years Mark has developed his own unique style incorporating a combination of luster trails, dicroic and metal mesh. This new look has been embraced by art lovers of all kinds and has made his work easy to identify.  Currently Sigafoos Art Glass can be found in galleries worldwide.
