Mary
Ann's
fascination with glass began as a child sneaking peaks at the rose window in church. At sixteen, she began to paint on glass, but pursuing a love of literature, received her B.A. in English from CSUF in 1976. Art classes were always in the schedule and in her senior year, a course in stained glass changed her direction. "I was hooked as soon as I completed my first window. I knew this would be my life's work. I feel very lucky to make a living doing something I love."

Most of the studio's work is in private homes and restaurants throughout the Southland. Mary Ann always works directly with the client throughout the design phase and glass
selection. In the past few years, her sons have been helping in the studio. We sometimes turn to reliable production studios for fabrication when the work comes in thick. Thanks to repeat clients and references from related businesses, commissions have come in steady for many years.
Celinder’s Glass Design is affiliated with the Stained Glass Association of America. Mary Ann is a founding member of the International Guild of Glass Artists and serves on the Guild’s Advisory Board.
