Artist Bio

Picture
     My name is Emily Reiss Coleman.  I began using glass as an artistic medium in 1994.  I began making silver jewelry in 1991.  I have been taking art photographs since 1993.  I received my BFA in Glass from Tyler School of Art of Temple University in 2000.  I have done many things since then, including blowing glass at StaffordGlass in VA.  I was extensively trained in stained glass at Beyer Studio, Inc. in Philadelphia and spent some time teaching high school art also in Philadelphia.  I was a graphic designer, and currently specialize in Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign.  I have worked with Castle Studio, Inc. in North Wales, PA and David Albert Stained Glass in Philadelphia.  I currently have my own studio, and I'm loving my life!  I have the chance to work for myself and my customers! I also currently work for the Philadelphia Department of Recreation Visual Arts Department as an art teacher for after school programs as well as in an art-intensive summer camp!
        My artistic inspiration comes from everything I see! Much of my artwork is inspired by the world around me. I am intrigued by the natural world and the geometry of everyday objects. I also enjoy creating useful items for the home, Judaica, and special occasion gift items.
