James Wilbat
James Wilbat studied water color and drawing as a youngster —
as early as the 5th grade. He continued his love of the arts at
Illinois State University where he received a B.S. in Fine Arts in
1977. Although he had majored in ceramics in undergraduate
school, he encountered glass blowing in his senior year, and he
knew he had to learn this unusual craft. In 1980 he completed a
Master of Fine Art degree in Design from the University of Kansas.
Wilbat was fortunate to be able to study under numerous well-
known glass blowers, including Joel Myers, Dan Dailey, William
Carlson and Vernon Brejcha. Yet his own unique style, which he
describes as a combination of Old World Glass and contemporary
design, reflects his love of Abstract Expressionist painting.
