Welcome to Flatwater Spirit Studio

I have loved glass for as long as I can remember. As a small child I was mesmerized and transported by the dancing colors in the stained glass windows in our church.

For me, glass is a metaphor for life...it is fragile and strong, dynamic, enduring and alive. It’s richly colored  components of a wellspring of sacred creative vision and hope.

Just as glass begins as fragments containing sand transformed through fire into a rigid liquid cooled into a polished wholeness, we humans also experience a similar healing metamorphosis through the ancient and sacred life journey of fracture, fire and faith. And, with glass, as in life, there is an illusion of control but little certainty within vast amounts of potential. You strive for perfection… and learn to accept the unexpected as compelling creative transformation.

Handcrafting glass art is my deep prayer for spiritual healing, connection, wholeness and the reclamation of joy through life’s fires.

Testimonials

It takes a great artist to take a clear and transparent media and imbue it with color, light and meaning.  Lynn Griffis does exactly this with her handcrafted glass art.  Her vision brings light into dark places.  This is especially true for me as I view her piece "In Memory of Steven".  Always, Lynn has helped me celebrate what it means to be alive.  Now she is able to do the same through her breathtaking glass pieces.
