About Kraatz & Russell
Kraatz
& Russell is a full time, two person, hot and cold working glass studio,
operating since 1975. Our studio and home are in the New Hampshire country
about two miles from the village. We are surrounded by pasture and hay
fields. Across the valley we see woods, hills, and the far mountains.
The sky dominates our landscape. It is impossible to separate how we work
from where we live.
Michael Kraatz studied with Harvey Littleton at the University of Wisconsin and received his graduate degree from the Rhode Island School of Design. Susan Russell has a BFA in design from RISD and an MA from Goddard College.
