About Debbie
Debbie Steiner is a fused glass artist in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, creating one-of-a-kind kiln-formed glass panels, dichroic jewelry, and wearable art. She teaches hands-on glass fusing classes for beginners and experienced artists, and exhibits at art fairs across the Chicago suburbs.
As a child, I remember seeing glass artists making glass animals right before my eyes. They used a flaming torch to make their designs. My glass animal collection still sits on my dresser!
My journey in glass is somewhat different. As a fused glass artist, my glass is formed in the kiln at very high temperatures. As I design my glass art, my partner is the kiln -- often with results that are unexpected, which is why each of my pieces is unique. I am always excited to open the kiln and see the finished glass art.
Today I create one-of-a-kind fused glass panels, dichroic jewelry, and wearable art from my studio in Buffalo Grove, Illinois. I also teach classes for beginners and experienced students -- because sharing the magic of glass is just as rewarding as making it.
