About Ochoa Stained Glass Welcome to Ochoa Stained Glass, a custom stained glass art studio and showroom where our professional stained glass artisans are dedicated to creating custom-designed commercial, residential and liturgical stained glass art, kiln-formed glass art, and glass mosaic art. Our expert artisans also restore stained glass treasures with skill and craftsmanship. Ochoa Stained Glass was established in 1975 in sun-bathed Tucson, the heart of Southern Arizona, in the desert southwest of the United States. The beauty of custom stained glass art comes to life in our desert paradise where we enjoy over 350 days of sunshine each year. This phenomenon has attracted some of our nation's best stained glass artists and enthusiasts. The artisans of Ochoa Stained Glass have been creating some of the most beautiful custom stained glass artworks in the region for more than 30 years. Owner/Artist Genia Parker purchased Ochoa Stained Glass after moving to Tucson from St. Louis, Missouri in early 2000. Genia is among the thousands who continue to select Tucson for its natural beauty and never-ending sunshine! Genia became interested in purchasing Ochoa Stained Glass while looking for a business that would allow her to use her 25 years of marketing business experience and express her aesthetic and creative talents. Ochoa Stained Glass was the perfect mix! After purchasing the business in March of 2000, Genia apprenticed with the previous owner for over 6 months. Genia, a stained glass artist and glass art designer, works very closely with clients as well as Ochoa Stained Glass artists to create stunning custom-designed commercial, residential and liturgical glass art. Genia is a member of the Southern Arizona Chapter of the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID ) as an Industry Partner. She has been the recipient of two prestigious ASID Design Excellence Awards. In 2005, she received Second Place for Product Design, for one of her glass art shutter designs. And in 2006, Ochoa Stained Glass again received recognition for its outstanding design work with a Merit Award for Product Design for a custom fused glass tabletop design. Genia has also participated as an artisan in several of the Tucson Museum of Art League's Designer ShowHouse events, a fundraiser that benefits the Tucson Museum of Art. The Designer ShowHouse events offer area interior designers, landscapers, craftsman, and artisans the opportunity to demonstrate their skills to ticket holders in a Tucson area home. Genia's "Rolling Abstracts" were featured in the Designer ShowHouse 2003. She created a beautiful Romanesque Bathroom panel entitled, "Vineyard Vibrancy, " for an Italian-inspired bedroom in the Designer ShowHouse 2005. Genia s work and the work of Ochoa Stained Glass artists was again featured in Designer ShowHouse 2007-Quinta Ladero an 8, 100 square foot home in Villa Toscana a new development in the Catalina Foothills.
