My name is Darren and I’ve been blowing glass for two decades. I first learned in college (Bowling Green State University) in 2000, and received a BFA with a specialization in glass blowing. In 2005 I decided to began my own glassblowing workshop and company called “Dirwood Glass”. For the past 15 years, I have been sharing my passion for glass through exhibiting art at museums across the nation, creating and collaborating with companies as prestigious as Pepsi, Marriot and Ferrari to name a few (you can see some of the Ferrari photos below), as well as creating unique art for individual collectors. The most recent leap in my career, has been creating a mobile glass furnace, which has enabled me to share my passion for the art and process of blowing glass outside of the studio, and into the world. Here are some pictures of places I have been able to take my glass mobile furnace and share my love of glass with others. Galleries typically mark up artworks by 50 % or even more.

He was first introduced to the glass blowing process at college. A graduate of Bowling Green State University, Goodman apprenticed under glass master Leon Applebaum in Corning, New York. He has also studied with studio glass legends Dante Marioni, Lino Tagliapietra and Davide Salvadore. In 2005 the young artist established his own glass studio in Waynesville, Ohio. Two years later Ferrari North America commissioned him to create trophies for the International Challenge Races. A teacher as well as an artist, Goodman has coordinated classes for students at elementary, high school, and college levels. His work has been exhibited and shared with audiences throughout the World. Goodman employs a hands-on approach and shares the tenets of the studio glass movement. He is concerned with the distinct properties of the material and embraces both the practice? S tradition and experimentation. Through his work he explores the textures, scale, and the implied functionality of each piece. He also emphasizes the collaborative and performance aspects of glassmaking, which is in keeping with the movement’s emphasis on process. Most recently his “Glass Experience”, a performance which combines both his musical and glassblowing creations into a interactive production, is being shared with people around the world. Through the common theme of team-work through glassblowing, Goodman translates into our everyday life, the unlimited potential of working together. See Glass Experience Video on Youtube Link.
