Chicagoland flamework, two decades in the making

From Tattoo Parlor to Glass Studio

Before the torch, Ghost spent years as a tattoo artist and music producer. That cross-disciplinary background — visual art, studio engineering, character work — runs through everything he makes in glass.

A Form That Became an Icon

Ghost's alien sculpture is one of the most recognized forms in the heady glass scene, appearing in collections and pipe shops across America. Two decades of refinement and it still looks like nothing else.

Expect the Unexpected

Aliens and skulls sit alongside ice cream cones and lawnmowers in the Ghost Glass catalog. The range is part of the point — a self-taught flameworker who follows the work wherever it goes.

A Background That Shows in the Work

Before glass, Ghost spent years as a tattoo artist and music producer. The character detail, the compositional instinct, the willingness to work across subjects — it all traces back to that foundation.

One Form, Countless Variations

The alien head is Ghost's signature and his most enduring design. Each iteration pushes the form in a new direction — different colorwork, different collaborators, same unmistakable character.
