In 1988, David Lewin established David Lewin Glass Design which he expanded in 1997 into a working art glass studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. There he designs and creates a range of unique work, both functional and sculptural, including a line of corporate gifts for FTM Glass Studio and commissioned architectural installations. David's blown and hand-sculpted work is recognized for color in rich combinations and for its sensual, naturalistic forms.
David's works of sculpture are exhibited in galleries throughout the United States and are in collections internationally. He is currently a board member of Creative Glass Philadelphia.
