Robert Cogen was born in Los Angeles in 1935. He graduated from the University of Southern California with degrees in Law and Zoology and pursued a career in scientific and medical law. Over many years Robert has done pen and ink, watercolor, and colored pencil illustrations from nature inspired by his early mentor, Robert Stebbins, a world-renowned zoologist and biological illustrator at the University of California, Berkeley. In 1978 Robert began producing stained glass windows and lamps under the tutelage of Mark Weinger. In stained glass Robert has found the great range of colors and textures which fill his work. "Here were colors woven together in ways I had never been able to achieve on my palette. They ignited my imagination." He combines the glass with his careful observations of nature to produce imaginative landscapes, myths and florals. "Most of the glass I use is hand blown in multiple colors. Frequently, it is rare and expensive, but the added dimension it gives my work makes it worthwhile."
