New Artists and reviews
As a stained-glass artist and designer, I have carried out a number of commissions for windows, front doors and hanging panels. The glass may be fused, textured or painted, leaded or copper-foiled.
Recently I completed several panels in a Deco style including a large stained glass sculpture, Deco Shard.
I have contributed to a number of stained glass projects in school and colleges in Essex : at Colchester Six Form College, St Luke’s Primary School in Tiptree, and recently this year, St Mary’s Church in Wivenhoe.
Pat is currently working on a series of cast glass pieces depicting the beauty which can be seen in age. We live in a society seemingly obsessed with a desire to hang on to the illusion of youth, frequently resulting in a level of uniformity and blandness. But a crumbling wall has so much more character than a new one, and a wrinkled face tells more stories than an unlined one!

My current work references the natural architecture of trees and the daily balancing act our bodies perform as we move through space; between states of instability & equilibrium. The interiority of glass, as a medium, allows the potential to go beneath the surface, both visually and metaphorically; to reveal or conceal new worlds, tantalisingly, beyond the veil.
I continue to explore the threshold between traditional methods and digital processes.
Paul’s current practice is concerned with the craft of lathe-turning waxes to produce unique cast glass vessels. This has led to the development of new cast pieces that reproduce the complexity of the turned wax vessels.

My work is a celebratiion of and meditation on what inspires and gives me joy in my life: the human form, ornament, architecture, culture, playing with form. The technicalities of working with glass are mind boggeling, but I am intrigued by the many techniques available through working in glass for creative development.
