Marianne is a glass artist residing in Gainesville, Florida.

She established Marianne M. Gamble, Inc. doing business as Gamble Stained Glass in March 1995.

Her focus has been on traditional stained glass including copper foil and lead came methods.

She evolved to fused and hot glass techniques in 2001 after taking an Introduction to Fusing class with Newy Fagan from Ocklawaha, FL. 

In 2005 the business name changed to Gamble Glass Studio.

Presently, she has a studio in Gainesville, FL where she does commissioned glass art, minor stained glass repair, and teaches art glass techniques.
