Description

Neal is drawn to working in glass because its fluidity - when molten - makes it an expressionist art form. Notice how the transparency of the glass brings the colors to life and how the contrast between rough and smooth surfaces is so pronounced!


 


Neal's work hasn't just won awards - it's often given as awards!


 


Drobnis' sculpture combines both glassblowing and casting techniques. Nature and ancient artifacts provide his inspiration and his techniques reintroduce a tradition of glass forming used by the Romans over three millennia ago.
