The Artistry of Frank
Workman |
| |
 |
| Visitors at Fenton Art
Glass watch in awe as glass artisan Frank Workman sits at
his finisher’s bench and carefully applies a molten thread
of glass to a vase. Within a few minutes, Frank has deftly
fashioned the thread into an intricate zigzag pattern whose
bright color contrasts perfectly with the hue of the vase.
His audience applauds as Frank holds the vase aloft
momentarily for all to see. |
| |
| Since joining Fenton in
1996, Frank has mastered all the traditional skills of the
glassmaker. In recent years, he has worked closely with
master glass artisan Dave Fetty and taken on some of the
most challenging jobs in our factory. |
| |
|
However, Frank
most enjoys working “off hand,”
producing vases
and similar objects witha basic mould and creating vivid
decorative motifs ranging from hanging hearts and thin
threadsto amazing swirls, twists and exaggerated geometric
patterns. |
