So far only completed a couple of projects mainly coasters and small bowls, ultimately I would like to concentrate on wall art.

New Artists and reviews
We are working internationally to celebrate and enjoy heritage crafts within contemporary society.
Recently showed at the 2022 GAS conference at the Tacoma museum of Glass and this year will be showing again at the British glass biennale.
So far I have been intent on discovering and mastering the various techniques imperative to successful outcomes.
Light refracted and reflected by glass colours is the main intrigue. Melted glass moves in its own way and I would like to harness and encourage this recognition in the pieces.
My work focuses on pattern and structure in two and three dimensions, from the microscopic scale, through to the environmental. I’m currently a doctoral candidate at the University of Wolverhampton, exploring the potential of a modular approach to moulds and making in kiln cast glass.
Kiln work, Commissions
I have recently completed an MA in Glass in Swansea and come from a background in print-making. I am interested in creating texture on glass using kiln forming techniques, acid etch and sandblast. Referencing the natural world; sand, sea and water I explore themes around ‘roots’ and ‘rootlessness’ in my work.
My background is construction, hence glass and light inspires me creatively besides making noises with a cigar box guitar and at times picking up a few bristles.
My present goal is to create unusual authentic art.
