Your Bio


Welcome to the website of the award winning Hamilton Ontario based glassblower and artist Kelly Lowe


Known for designing and creating some of Canada's most prestigious awards - including those presented to our nation's top musicians, members of parliament, scientists, and members of the medical community - Kelly Lowe is an accomplished glassblower, artist, and ambassador for the arts. Kelly and her work has been featured in print, on television, and even up on the big screen: starring in Cineplex Entertainment's 2011 December long pre-film short where she demonstrated how traditional blown glass Christmas ornaments are made to an estimated audience of 6.4 million people.


While Kelly's profile continues to rise she remains true to her first love and passion: working as a local artist within the Hamilton Ontario region. Most of her days are spent at her single artist studio designing and creating world class awards and presentation pieces for the region's businesses and organizations. From her studio she also works on her fine art pieces, creating beautiful and unique vases, sculptures, ornaments and her "Kritters": imaginative creatures made by combining the traits of two or more real world animals to create strange yet adorable new ones - each with their own top hat, of course.


If you're interested in a piece of Kelly's art, are interested in working with her on a project, or simply have some questions you're curious to have answered, you're more than welcome to drop by the studio, email Kelly directly, or contact her by telephone. Please visit the Contact and Studio Location page for more information on how to do so.
