Howdy, I’m Pearce.

The face behind Temporary Reality.

I have always been creative, wanting to learn new things and explore new hobbies. I am almost never not making something. From purses, to chain mail, to gauges, and most recently D20 lamps. But glass has really stood out to me. I love the medium and making unexpected things with it. I learned how to make stained glass when I had an idea for a Tri-Force lamp I wanted to make, and the flood gates opened. I am self taught by reading a lot of bits online, learning from local shops, and just experimenting with the limits of glass. I have also met other talented Stained Glass artists who have taught me a few things.

My partner in life also makes glass with me, but with a full time job this is her side hustle so she usually makes the smaller pieces.

And of course, there’s our shop dog, Boota. He’ll talk your head off and demand pets but he’s a good boy.
