Deb Rich is a self-taught lampworker and glass beadmaker with over twenty years of successful lampworking experience. Her glass journey began while living in Phoenix, AZ and continues to this day. Deb has demonstrated this art form publicly at school functions, First Fridays, and several other venues and because Deb is a former teacher, she can successfully explain and teach this craft in layman's terms to beginning lampwork artists. Deb is a patient and understanding instructor and a talented and skilled artist. She consistently pushes the envelope in technique and originality, respecting the basic process and building upon this knowledge through experimentation and artistic ability. Deb loves to see the creative spark ignite when demonstrating the process to students and is happy to pass along her knowledge to other artists.
