My projects for 2023 include organising a sculpture trail at Sussex Prairie Garden in West Sussex and exhibition venues with Surrey Sculpture Society. In 2022 I curated a Glass Garden at The RHS Chelsea Flower Show in London to celebrate International Year of Glass #IYOG.

New Artists and reviews
Ian and I have an amazing studio just out side Poole in Dorset and we regularly take part in Dorset Art weeks and Purbeck Art Weeks opening our Studio to the public. This year I will be demonstrating the art of making Lampwork beads at a variety of venues, which we often incorporate into our unique jewellery.
We have been lucky enough to have our Glass and metal Garden Sculptures displayed at Chelsea Flower Show in the Glass Garden which is curated by fellow CGS member Gabrielle Argent and also as part of the Sculpture exhibition at the Sussex Prairie Gardens. We have held our first ever Solo exhibitions in Upton Country Park in Upton, Poole, and at Walford Mill in Wimborne. Both very successful events.
We are working on new pieces at the moment getting ready for this Years events and Open Studio.
Starting simply – a glass lid for turned hollow form. Next project (underway) is a hollow wooden lantern with glass panels.
As well as creating unique handmade glass art inspired by science, nature, and the patterns and textures that we see around us in every day life, I love to share my passion for glass by teaching others – from small workshops in my studio, to larger groups in schools, communities and other venues.
