The Studio
In the tradition of great European workshops, Sylvia’s studio in the mountains of San Rafael de Heredia, Costa Rica, employs highly trained craftsmen and women working under the artist’s direct supervision.

Her workshop has had a great impact on the local community. Most of her workers were formerly poor farmers and ranchers, and now they are extremely skilled technicians in the stained glass trade. The twenty expert craftspersons have taken their newfound skills and pride into their homes and community, creating an environment of artistic inspiration for the mostly rural town.
