We are more than a gallery. We are home to The St. Petersburg Hot Glass Workshop and DMG School Proj
(284)
Although we feature many artists who are in multiple museums, we have a full range of works available from $50.00 up.
We're back up and running with all the artwork on the freshly cleaned shelves, ready for a close look! We welcome all ages and questions about the artwork and artists. London artist Tim Rawlinson studied architecture and ceramics before establishing himself as an international leading glass artist. The refractive qualities of glass in Tim's multi-stage blown, cut, and polished pieces create optical illusions, shadows, and reflections. .rawlinson
Our hearts go out to those most impacted by Hurricane Idalia. We were very fortunate to not have sustained ANY damage at the gallery, which is in a non-evacuation zone with hurricane doors and a solid metal roof to protect the myriad frangible works of art from around the world, all of which were securely stowed during the hurricane, but will be back on the shelves, pedestals and walls by week's end. You can read about our and other galleries' extensive preparation in today's Tampa Bay Times. https://www.tampabay.com/hurricane/2023/08/29/hurricane-idalia-tampa-bay-art-dali-museum-glass/
Is there hope for the future? There is here at the gallery! Christian Zvonic, who began his career in Seattle in 1995 and worked with such greats as Lino Tagliapietra, David Bennett, and gaffers from the famed Chihuly Boat House, blew and hot sculpted these "Hope for the Future I and II" flamingo sets. They are sold as a pair, but can be mixed and matched.
Aron Leaman gets excited watching his unique blown and hot sculpted birds, each with their own personalities and character, come to life as he's making them. Check out the detail on "Strong Currents Off the Wampum Coast." The shell-like patterns and lines on the bird are creating a current, much like the Wampum Coast from where Aron draws inspiration.
Martin Rosol's "Sonnet" was made with precisely cut blocks of flawless clear crystal and constructed in architectural form. Some selected surfaces were sand blasted for a softer opaque look, while others extensively polished, creating an ice-like surface. Areas of the glass are tinged with veneers of color and assembled in geometric forms so that the intersections and planes eminate light, color, and beauty from all angles.
Congratulations to Alli Hoag, selected by Toledo Museum of Art as their 55th Guest Artist Pavilion Project Artist in Residence! Her eye-popping cast glass "Aerial Vistas - Gulfstream" (only partially pictured here) is on display at our St. Petersburg gallery. If you're in the Toledo area, we encourage you to attend Alli's free artist's lecture and public demonstration there on August 25th at 7 o'clock.
A big "Birdzel" told me today is Mark Chatterley's birthday. Happy 66th, Mark!
Happy National Black Cat Appreciation Day to our beloved golden-eyed good luck Ramon!
David Patchen's work is about vibrant colors, pattern, and exploration of how much detail he can resolve in glass. Besides meticulously planning the shapes and patterns, the different colored glass with its different melting temperatures must be considered as well. It was he who helped one of our DMG School Project residency artists with his glass compatibility issues. It's with great appreciation and admiration that we wish David a Happy Birthday today!
What do we and the Ringing Museum have in common? We're both FREE to the public on Mondays (We are Tuesday through Saturday too!) with a sculpture garden and museum-quality artwork inside and out. Pictured is Mark Chatterley's "Woodmuse" ceramic sculpture. https://dmglass.com/product/woodmuse/
Please join us in welcoming Ohio artist Kevin Daigle, who's been part of the team here since October, and is moving to St. Pete this weekend. He'll be working here all day Friday and Saturday, so please come in to view the collection and say hello! He would be happy to answer any questions you may have about his Fissure vases (pictured) or about any of the other works of art by the 125 or so artists we represent.
Have a listen to Season 8, Episode 21 of the "Talking out Your Glass" podcast to hear Rik Allen: Reflecting on Futuristic Antiquity via Glass Spacecraft and Apparatus, sponsored in part by the Duncan McClellan Gallery and DMG School Project. Pictured are "Corolus Super" and "Caorlinan Deepseeking Plasma Diver", part of our museum-quality collection of Rik's wondrous works on display and for sale.
Third generation glass artist, Kevin Gordon, creates complex glass vessels that exemplify his technical command of traditional glass making processes. Overlaid color blown glass is decorated through engraving, sandblasting, and lathe cutting through layers of color, then brought back to a high polish through hand and fire polishing. This "Urchin Bowl" is 6" by 13.5" and is stunning from any angle.
Check out this interview Duncan did for the Arts Alive! Podcast hosted by Bill DeYoung.
“About 17 minutes into this Arts Alive! podcast interview, acclaimed contemporary glass artist Duncan McClellan lays bare the humility that has made him one of St. Pete’s favorite creatives.”

During National Wellness Month, don't underestimate the value of art! We welcome you for a slice of serenity in our gallery and sculpture gardens. benoi
It's another beautiful day at the Duncan McClellan Gallery! There is no admission fee, nor reservation required, and we're open until 5 o'clock.
"Letting Out" by Natash Dikareva, who was born and raised in Kiev, Ukraine, was a favorite for some visitors today. Drawing on her Eastern European background, her work bridges cultural and linguistic barriers, speaking to the common experience of life. Our guests especially like the masterful incorporation of glass with the porcelain.
This blown and hot sculpted "Flowering Vine Vessel" lined with 23k gold is Canadian artist Susan Rankin's ongoing interpretation of life - beauty, color, gesture, shadow, reflection, isolation, confinement, freedom, and treasure. .glass.studio
These Aqua, Mammoth Amethyst, Mammoth Turquoise and Flame Tendril sets by Pauli Maiville are part of our Bloom and Ripen exhibit. Each set is sold separately by color, but put together, it's a party of sprouting glassworks which can be arranged in various formations to fit your decor and mood.
This cool blue cast glass "Torso XI" by Latchezar Boyadjiev, towering at 21 x 13 x 3.5", drips with sensuality.
This blown and carved masterpiece by Pietro and Riccardo Ferro that appears to glow from within is one of a dozen in our Ferro brothers collection, so distinguished and substantial, it received honorable mention at a recent Imagine Museum "art safari" experience. While most museums are closed today, our gallery, chock-full of museum-quality art, is free and open until 5 o'clock.
On "National Mango Day", and as part of our featured "Bloom and Ripen" exhibit, we're giving away samples of cool, cut, meaty mangoes today until five o'clock! Please stop in for taste and to view the savory exhibit featuring fantastic glass artworks in floral and fruit themes.
We wish you all a day as refreshingly cool as this diamond-tipped engraved, blown glass masterpiece, "With Meringue on Top" by Lisabeth Sterling! Happy Birthday, Lisabeth!
Ohhhh La La! Click the image below to see Sarah Saho's succulent video snippets from Friday's "Bloom & Ripen" event, which included exotic fruit tastings by Florida Fruit Co-Op, complete with Lev Pasikhov's orchard talk and tour, and an Ikebana demonstration by Mary Sharrow. The flower and fruit glass art exhibit is still out in all its glory for your viewing pleasure!
Check out this vibrant, new 15 x15 x3" blown glass "Reticello Yoyo" by Jason Christian! We're open until 5 o'clock today (and every day except Sunday) and never charge an admission fee, nor do we require an appointment to view the museum-quality artwork.
Today is the official opening of "Bloom and Ripen", curated by Zuzu Bartlett. After enjoying a bevy of beauty inside the gallery, be sure to allow time to miander the sculpture gardens to look for more exquisite blooms, fresh fruits, and artwork along the boardwalk. You never know what (or who) you'll find in the lush gardens! .grebe
It seems we're not the only ones excited about the new exhibit, "Bloom & Ripen"! Our guest sporting the cool watermelon top is salvating at all the beautiful blooms and fruits and states, "There's nothing better than a juicy fruit in the heat of summer". # .bluejay
On "Shark Awareness Day", our eyes are on Stephen Pon''s "Totem Series: Pink Shark", which measures 8 by 13 1/2 by 3 1/2 inches. .pon
Every year we (DMG School Project) enjoy providing talks, tours, and etching projects to several group of children from the Dali Rec Center over the span of a couple days.
For today's 3 for Thursday and a sneak peak at part of the upcoming new exhibit, we have Nick Mount's blown glass and wood plums. He's been blowing glass since the 70s and is one of Australia's most accomplished and celebrated studio glass artists.
Acclaimed Massachusetts artist Natalie Tyler (who recently completed a residency through DMG School Project) uses glass and bronze casting to explore the fragile and forceful elements of nature.
Our Monday morning is off to a terrific start with the Dali Rec Center here getting a tour of the gallery and hot shop, followed by the kids creating their own etched plates, sponsored by DMG School Project. Even with these tours and kids' programming going on today and tomorrow, we're open to the public until 5 o'clock, so please stop by.
Happy Caturday! The blown and sand-carved totem pole behind Ramon is etched with, "Stay Away From the Fruit" in several different languages, but today we're giving away ripe, organic mangoes with each purchase. 😋
On this toasty day, enjoy this cool "Blue Moon #2", blown, cut and polished glasswork by Jon Goldberg.
On "National Hawaii Day" the focus falls on "Hawaiian White Spotted Toby Eye" by Jonathan Swanz, who moved to Hawaii and 2010. His art is about captivating raw energy. He says, "Hawaii has such a visceral elemental energy that's always around: the ocean, lava making new earth, the vibrancy of the jungle. Everything feels so alive here" .swanz
This beautifully blown and carved piece, "Evviva" (Italian word for "hurray!) was made in Italy by brothers Marco and Mattia Salvadore. I see "Happy 4th of July!" written all over it, which is exactly what we at the Duncan McClellan Gallery and DMG School Project wish you and your family and friends as you celebrate!
Here's a sampling of some delicious new artwork by Canadian artist Taygan Appleton.
These colorful multi-layer, free-standing, fused glass panels in stainless steel pedestals created by Dorothy Hafner would pop any room. Hafner has won numerous honors and awards and her works are in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum and many other museum collections around the world.

If you build a wall, we will gladly fill it! The artwork pictured (by Eric Hilton, Eli Cecil, Gabe Feenan, Jennifer McCurdy, Marc Petrovic, Martin Rosol, Miles Van Rensselear, Steve Hagan, Timothy Stover, and Thomas Scoon) is from our gallery and was hand delivered (with additional artwork by Benjamin Cobb, Jan Kransberger, Kevin Gordon, and Naoko Takenouchi) and installed by Duncan McClellan. Yes, it was worth renting a U-Haul and the 22 hour round trip!

“Sleeping Tablet” Paul J. Nelson Modeled after the popular Ipad or tablet in most of our lives. Much of Paul’s work focuses on portraiture, narrative, and a sort of re-contextualization of the sculpted subject, via their cultural and historical contributions to society. Often these characterizations juxtapose brooding dark comedy, epic fantasy, and a quest for depth in meaning. The use of thick cast glass in Paul’s sculpture allows the element of light to enhance this purpose. #dmglass #dailyart #sheep #castglass #narrativeart #narrative #sculpted @stpetefl
