? Artist Spotlight ? Minnesota artist Bonnie Hinz made the leap from a successful career in interior design to full-time artistry in 2004 after discovering her passion for glassblowing. Fascinated by the interplay between the fragile, organic nature of glass and the industrial strength of metal, Bonnie began combining these materials into seamlessly integrated art. Her vibrant creations are inspired by the graceful curves of leaves, flowers, and grasses, and they swirl with layers of bright, arresting colors. Today, her unique glass and metal installations can be found in medical buildings, hotels, offices, and private homes across the U.S. ????
