Over the last 4.5 decades nature artist John Banovich has pushed the boundaries of creativity in art. Since age seven, Banovich has drawn his inspiration from nature and all things wild, exploring contemporary mediums and forms to portray the integrity and beauty of the animal kingdom. 

As part of our new glass series, “Natural Reflections” Banovich has partnered with friend Brent Rogers, a 15 year veteran of working with glass in the epicenter of glass art. Our new handcrafted glass art collection captures the fire formed beauty and raw essence of nature’s WILD side.
