Showing at the International Festival of Glass, August-September 2012 and featured on ‘Handmade Revolution’, BBC2, to be aired October 2012.

My aim is to make colours ‘dance’ in 3D when light is behind them. I like to make windows that relate to features both inside and outside the glass. I also sometimes undertake illustrative commissions, e.g. three recent large Tam O’Shanter windows for the Globe Inn in Dumfries

I mainly work to commission for the domestic and corporate markets. Commissions include windows, doors, free-hanging panels, wallpieces and large mirrors. My aim is to create pieces which will make the most of available light, exploit the natural beauty of the glass and remain a source of interest to the client for years to come.

I am an experienced teacher of my craft and teach beginners through to advanced students at my studio, West Dean College (near Chichester) and Flatford Mill (Suffolk).

I create stained glass panels and fused glass vessels and art panels,
Commissions are welcome.

In 2019 I was delighted to have my fused glass wall art ‘Beneath the Waves’ and my sculpture ‘Forever Young’ exhibited in the CGS Glorious Glass Exhibition at St Helens World of Glass. I am continuing to develop my ideas in creating connected pieces of fused glass to make larger pieces of work and overcoming the limitations of my small kiln. In my stained glass work I am working on projects that incorporated bespoke fused glass pieces into stained glass windows for customers.
