John Boyett's Glass Work






John Boyett
Originally from Dade City, Florida, John Boyett traveled the world in the US Air Force and earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree fromFlorida International University. He was a member of the University of Miami Glass Blowing Guild, studied at Penland School of Craft, and worked at Studio Glashutten in Ahus, Sweden and at Hale Farm and Village in Akron, Ohio before cofounding Akron Glass Works with Jack Baker.
John's work is a reflection of his life... whimsical and frequently unpredictable. Influenced by bright color combinations found in tropical plants and unusual forms in saltwater creatures, his work is often comprised of conventional forms with unexpected adornments.
