Information provided by the Artist: Satava Art Glass was established in 1977. The art glass Richard created was based in nature themes and motifs using ancient techniques, but also modern equipment, to create original designs in hand-blown glass vases, bowls, paperweights, and sculptures. The studio has produced pictorial nature scenes with designs like the Harvest Moon, Mt. Shasta, Florals, as well as Native American drawings. In the 1990s he started to focus more attention on ocean life and nautical themes, creating the Moon Jellyfish and Nautilus series. After experimenting with various formulas to achieve the translucent colors needed to make the jellyfish, finally by 1995 the series was ready for display. The Jellyfish series fast became one of his most successful creations. The studio retired from blowing glass in 2025 though Richard's work is still available at various galleries, his local gallery and online. Richard Satava's work is represented in the Crocker's permanent collection.
