Patrick Hedglen

Patrick is an IT professional who moved to the Shreveport-Bossier area in 2017. While pursuing a career in the tech industry, Patrick has found an artistic outlet in the form of glassblowing. What started as a hobby has turned into a passion that has helped him cope with personal loss and express their creativity. Patrick has been interested in glassblowing for years, but it wasn't until 2019 that he really started to pursue it seriously. Taking workshops and experimenting on his own, he has developed a unique style that incorporates bold colors, intricate designs, and a touch of whimsy. Drawing inspiration from the natural world, as well as from the works of other glassblowers, Patrick creates pieces that are both beautiful and functional. From delicate vases to vibrant bowls, each piece is crafted with care and attention to detail. While still balancing a full-time job in IT, Patrick dedicates his free time to honing his craft and exploring new techniques. Through glassblowing, Patrick has found a way to channel his creativity and express his emotions.
