About the Artist
Paul was born and raised in Seattle, Washington, and began his career in glass in 1984 at the Glass Eye. A short stint in the shipping department led to a spot in front of the furnace where he has been ever since. Working and traveling with Dale Chihuly for three years was an incredible experience for him. He has been fortunate enough to work along side many skilled glass artists including Lino Tagliapietra, Dan Dailey, and Dick Marquis among others, and he credits his friends and contemporaries Dante Marioni and Benjamin Moore for making a career in glass possible. He enjoys blowing glass in Seattle at Benjamin Moore Incorporated, and has recently opened his own hotshop, Cunningham Glass. Paul continues to teach and show his work internationally.
