Striking Colorful Hand-Blown Glass Creatures By Scott Bisson

Oregon-based glass blower Scott Bisson shows his great love for nature through these strikingly colorful hand-crafted creatures. These glass-blown whimsical sculptures include lizards, frogs, snakes, geckos and some sea creatures like octopi. Each of Scott’s pieces depicts his great patience, dedication and incredible amount of detail to them.
“If I don’t lose a piece a day from getting in over my head, then I am not pushing myself hard enough. Skill is the raw material of a great piece, and drive and energy make it take shape,” he said.
