Artist

Michelle Kibbe has been with Fenton Art Glass since 1993. During her time at Fenton she has worked on a variety of items, from QVC to Fenton tent sale pieces and lamps. She especially enjoys painting floral designs on baskets.

Fenton USA partnered with glass artisan Ron Hinkle to develop marvelous blown ornaments. A native of Buchannon, West Virginia, Ron is fascinated by the movement and flow of molten glass. His work has been featured on the West Virginia Governor's Christmas Tree and the Christmas Pageant of Peace trees at the White House.

Dave Fetty began his career in the glass industry at age 19, when he worked at the Blenko Glass Company in Milton, West Virginia. Dave's mentor at Blenko was glassworker ''Shorty'' Finley, who taught him some of the skills for making glass offhand (without moulds).

Artists Robert Bomkamp and Kelsey Murphy call their southern West Virginia studio "Made in Heaven," and the name is an apt one, indeed. Collectors and museums alike have come to regard Kelsey and Robert's work as "heavenly!"

Kim Barley now handpaints beautiful and whimsical limited edition and one-of-a-kind pieces for Fenton Art Glass and Fenton Gift Shop which are sold on eBay and available in the shop. She also completes hand applied decorations on Fenton USA Jewelry.
