Linda’s ‘Marbellous’ light shade was shown at the prestigious ‘New Glass – Ancient Skill, Contemporary Artform’ exhibition at Blackwell, The Arts and Crafts House. This piece was made specifically to complement the Arts and Crafts surroundings of Blackwell. It uses the copper foil technique and contains over 700 individual pieces, including 1kg of marbles.

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.

Organic designs are generally the inspiration for my work, in particular landscapes and waterscapes, and foliage. I am always experimenting in order to get new effects. A visit to the Jurassic Coast a year or so back encouraged me to explore the strata of the earth and the ground beneath our feet, in coming up with new patterns and colour combination in working in glass.
