  • 5/5 from Tessa, attended Sep 2026: Lena is a brilliantly talented artist and teacher. Really enjoyed the entire process of her class. She gives constant feedback and encouragement. She will help if needed, but knows when to back off to let you experience and try at the whole process. Lena was respectful and kind. I highly recommend her class for anyone looking for a lovely craft project evening or trial for a new hobby as she is extremely knowledgeable and clearly enjoys sharing it with others. Well done. 10/10

Hi, I'm Lena, a glass enthusiast, artist, and lifelong lover of making things with my hands.

My journey into glass began with a simple engraving project and quickly grew into a fascination with all things glass. Since then, I've explored glass blowing, lampworking, leadlighting, and copper foil stained glass, with formal training at Melbourne Polytechnic helping to turn a creative curiosity into a true passion.
What I love most about glass is its ability to transform with light, colour, and a little bit of magic. Through my workshops, I enjoy helping others discover the joy of creating with glass, learn new skills, and leave with a handmade piece they're proud of.

Founded by artist Lena in 2023, 3minheat.art celebrates curiosity, creativity and the joy of exploring new ideas through glass art.
The name "3minheat" comes from a phrase Lena often heard growing up, describing her tendency to become intensely interested in something before moving on to the next passion. Years later, following an ADHD diagnosis, she realised that what others saw as inconsistency was actually curiosity, adaptability and a love of learning.
Today, 3minheat.art is a reflection of that journey. It embraces the spark of inspiration, the excitement of discovery and the belief that creativity doesn't have to follow a single path. By transforming a once-critical label into a positive one, Lena created a brand that celebrates individuality, self-acceptance and the courage to follow one's curiosity wherever it leads.
