A talented Glasgow artist is ‘shaken and stirred’ after being given the chance to showcase his work at a favourite celebrity haunt of 007 legend Sir Sean Connery.
He exclusively spoke to the Glasgow Times about his pride at being selected to take part in such an elite exhibition.
“For me, it is important as a Scottish contemporary artist that I’m seen to do everything that I can to promote my nation’s creative and cultural sector. I can only hope that I can do my bit.”Frank, who works from his studio in Glasgow, is known for creating unique art using gunpowder. He describes the material as ‘extremely challenging’ to work with and says he never knows how his final designs will turn out.
“I’ve had to really push myself to get the best out of it. I’m the type of person who will always look to the next challenge, but I suppose that’s why I’m so passionate about what I do. I like to push the boundaries.” Frank added: “I met Sir Patrick Stewart while he was chancellor of the university where I was studying. He came along to see my work and we just hit it off.
