Lauren DiSanza
Lauren grew up surrounded by arts and crafts in sunny Florida. Her mother, who dabbles in everything from painting to storytelling, has always been her biggest source of inspiration.
When Lauren was a child, she remembers mimicking her mother as she would draw, paint and create. As she got older, she started dabbling in ceramics and oil pastels and fell in love with it all. At the same time, her mother discovered stained glass mosaics and lampworking.
As a teenager, determined to be as opposite from her mother as possible, Lauren steered clear of glass arts, but still loved to watch her mom work. Little did she know, her aversion would become her delight!
She landed the best job a creative nut could get – “product developing guinea pig” for one of the largest manufacturers of glass crafting products in the world. So she spends her days fusing, lampworking, mosaicking, upcycling and blogging about her adventure.
Her work has been featured in several popular craft magazines and in the Diamond Tech Creative Corner. Look for more inspiring posts from Lauren, here on Delphi's blog!
