About the Craftsman

Welcome to my website.  I’m Eric Schwartz, owner of InFusion Art Glass, and I have been working with glass for over 40 years.  I began as a self-taught stained glass craftsman circa 1978, and grew that passion into owning a stained glass supply store, teaching studio, and custom stained glass fabricator in Milford, CT.   Three kids and several engineering jobs later, I returned to glass, more recently adding experimentation with fused and kiln formed glass.   Combining my engineering background and my glass experience, I have developed several unique techniques for the creation of glass, including a “carved frit” process and a 3D methodology for fused glass pieces.  Please browse the rest of this website to see examples of this unique work as well as my more conventional stained, painted, fused and kiln formed glass pieces.

To say the past few months have been challenging for InFusion Art Glass would be well understated.  Covid not withstanding, in April 2020, a watermain break caused a flood at my Harrison Ave (SOWA) location and had to relocate.  A few months later, my new location at Winsmith Mills in Norwood experienced a fire down the hall from my studio, and the fire marshal ordered a long-term shutdown for renovations and only the possibility of  re-approval for occupancy... so I needed to relocate AGAIN to keep practicing my craft.   Finally, I'm very happy to announce the opening of my new space.  Still both a gallery and working studio,  I'm now located at The Landing at Hudson Mills, in Hudson MA.  Hudson is an up and coming arts center, with a newly rejuvenated downtown, and more interestingly for me, a Medusa Brewery taproom is opening soon right next to me in the Mills.  

The InFusion Art Glass Gallery is a display of my current work, all available for sale, while the adjacent studio space holds a unique collection of glass working equipment: kilns, glass cutting tables, back-lit light tables, cold-working laps and polishers, a sandblaster, computer controlled cutting machines, and of course, a wide selection of raw materials, from sheet glass to powdered “frit” glass.
