The image on the left is ‘Timeless: All Bar One’ which exemplifies automated and physical worlds, contrasting technology in the form of barcodes and identity, resting on a bog oak wooden plinth. It marries the new with the old with each medium displaying different facets of time.

I specialise in kiln formed splashbacks for kitchens and bathrooms. Recent panels can be found on my website glassification.co.uk. I now offer courses in splashbacks both face to face in my workshop, and also online for those who can’t get down to Somerset.
