Bob Leatherbarrow

Bob has been working with kiln-formed glass since 1988 and started experimenting with glass powders when they first were introduced in the mid nineties. Since then he has been on a voyage of discovery using powders to create unique glass, textures, and design components. Bob is a scientist by training and, as a self-taught artist, has applied his scientific background to working with glass. He has taught for 10 years and stimulates class participants to be creative through testing new ideas and intelligent problem solving. Bob is currently on the Board of Directors of the Glass Art Association of Canada.
