Item Description
Donated by the very talented artist Michael Hopko from his studio Soul Glass, we have a beautiful hand blown glass octopus with his signature etched in the under part of the piece. Located out of Weaverville California, Michael is making some of them most intricate and glass pieces. If you are a glass collector like myself I promis you that you will not be disappointed at all!
This Octopus is the small measuring in at 8X8X3 inches roughly, price may vary depending on color combinations.
Soul Glass is located in the Trinity Alps of Northern California. Artist Michael Hopko has created a collection of hand-blown sculptures combining art and craftsmanship. The beauty and motion of nature are captured through glass in stunning detail.
Michael Hopko began his journey as a glass artist in 1990 as an art student at Shasta College. After college, he worked as an apprentice glass blower with several different artists in California.
An avid outdoorsman, Michael¿s interest in nature is manifested in his inspired glass works. His sculptures include a variety of octopi, trout, bass, and salmon as well as colorful mahi-mahi, yellow fin tuna, and many others to suit your style.
Since founding Soul Glass in 1996, Michael has ensured that each piece of art that leaves his studio is uniquely crafted with quality. Constantly honing his craft, his future goals include creating even more elaborate pieces such as the goldfish or rooster fish, which will appeal to both the trained glass collector and the individual looking for beautiful display art.
