New Artists and reviews
My work is primarily designed to interact with natural light to bring patterns of colour to interiors. The versatility of glass types and techniques make it a fascinating medium to work with, and I have always loved how the shades of coloured glass change in different light. Most of my work is inspired by the nature I immerse myself within when working in my garden or visiting the countryside. I also take inspiration from the sea, and our relationship with it. I absolutely love the shades of blue glass that are available to work with, and use a lot of coastal imagery and themes in my work where I love the challenge of representing the myriad colours of water. Principles of balance and proportion are also important to me in the way I design and construct my pieces, which allows them to bring a harmonious feel to interiors.
Commissions for both stained glass window panels and smaller fused glass pieces are always welcome. I enjoy involving my clients in design processes of commissioned pieces to help them express their own creativity and bring their ideas to life.
Often using unique surfaces, such as hand-made paper and wood, Sharon employs various techniques to convey strong visual and conceptual themes, which display a keen sense of aesthetics; focussing mainly on politics, nature and the environment.
