involved in every aspect of glass making. He studied glass
art at Hardwick College in 1982 and received his Bachelor
of Arts degree there in 1984. Christopher attended the
Pilchuck School in 1983 where he studied with Bertil
Vallien. He returned to Pilchuck in 1985 to study with Jon

glass blowing facilities including the Tom Philabaum Glass

blowing at the Pratt Fine Arts Center in Seattle in 1992.
He then went on to pioneer the educational program at
Seattle Glassblowing Studio before building his own studio,
Morrison Glass Art, Inc. in Bellingham, Washington.
