Tom Holdman’s interest in stained glass began in high school when a teacher acted as a mentor to his art. When he was 21, Holdman started a stained-glass studio out of his parents’ garage and found patrons by traveling door-to-door. He founded Holdman Studios in 1988 in Lehi, UT. Holdman described the balance of creating stained glass art, “It’s a partnership of three — the artist, the glass and the light. You are only one-third of that partnership. I loved how the light interacted with the glass. It’s hundreds of pieces of art as it is affected by the sun. That captivated me” (Deseret.com).
