Austin Davenport Grier is a glass person from NorCal who has dabbled in many facets of the glass world. Austin has had a hand in flame-working tiny intricate beads as well as architectural features including countertops, fountains, and decorative glass hallways. His most proficient techniques are twisted dot-stacked soft glass, fused bullseye glass windows, and sandblasted float glass, all of which he learned from his Bay Area mentors. He is currently practicing more classical-scale glass techniques in the hot shop, somewhere between the massive and the miniscule since joining the UrbanGlass team in 2021.
