ColoRADo never disappoints.
Today was a good day. Here's to the weekend!
Well I can finally check off scrambling up the 2nd Flat Iron without a rope from the bucket list. I had made attempts before but either rained out or chickened out. Learn something new, conquer your fears, do something you never in a million years wo
This summer was a fun one, full of hikes and bikes. Today we hiked up Bear Mountain followed by a sunset cruise on two wheels. Tomorrow might be Monday but let's make it a good one!
Aspen to Crested Butte over the Triangle Pass while camping next to a natural hot spring has me feeling quite relaxed and refreshed. My Uncle Josh is the one who first got me lost in the wild. He challanged me to find my own way and peaked my inter

Hi Y’all! My name is Sam Foreman, studio owner of Westside Art Studio, here in Longmont, Colorado.

Born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA, I started with an early interest in art during high school thanks to an awesome art teacher. Here is where I began training in ceramics and first starting to experiment with glass. So it’s a full circle moment for me now teaching high school art, making art and working with the community here in Colorado.

After studying a wide range of studio arts and playing lacrosse at Lycoming College, where I honed my skills and practiced different mediums including ceramics, printmaking, photography and painting. In 2010, I returned to Pittsburgh and stepped into the Pittsburgh Glass Center to take a beginner glass class. My life was changed and I never looked back. I was blessed to work with so many awesome and talented individuals there, and across the country at different studios, who each taught me so much about glass and life.

In 2019, Stacia and I moved together to Boulder, it was always a dream to live here in the mountains with abundant sunshine and have a glass studio. Fast forward to 2025, we are now married with two awesome studio dogs, Maisy & Minka. We have a house with a perfect little glass and pottery studio, with the goal of sharing the experience of art and creating unique works of art with the community.

When I’m not in the art studio or teaching art, I enjoy all Colorado has to offer from the food scene, concerts, mountain biking, hiking with Stacia and the dogs, and snowboarding during the winter months. On the competitive side I will take you on in table-tennis, pickle ball, or some disc golf, followed by a local brew anytime you are out west in Colorado. All former art and glass acquaintances are welcome to the studio anytime and residencies are available.
