I currently have a piece in the BSMGP ‘Inspired by William Morris’ exhibition which started at the International Festival of Glass and is now moving to The Stained Glass Museum at Ely Cathedral till 31st October, after which it will move to Rochdale Town Hall.

My process involves a range of techniques that serve the purpose of the work e.g. modelling in wax, mold-making through a lost-wax process, casting, printing and painting on glass, cold-working, engraving as well as stained glass techniques. Some of my pieces refer to key archetypes from feminine psychology and mythology – each containing a model of a doll (‘the Girl’) that I have kept since childhood. I devise scenes with my doll that allow me to laugh at myself, provide comfort, or recollect memories.

I am interested in resonance patterns, and flow, and find glass an intriguing medium in which to work. I also enjoy using enamels on glass in a painterly fashion.

I specialise in vector illustrations, recreating original work and artefacts by vector tracing, and watercolour painting, Contemporary Glass Society and The Institute of Conservation (ICON). Since 2023, I began studying the craft of stained glass and joined the British Society of Master Glass Painters. Since then, I have taken any opportunity to study and work with the medium, visit museums with stained glass exhibitions, read books recommended to me, such as by Patrick Reyntiens, and learn from masters of the craft. I attended Jonathan Cooke’s masterclasses at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David, got tutored by Flora Jamieson in her Dorset studio, was taught by Ellen van Dijk in the Glasatelier Ellen studio, and attended a two-day glass painting workshop that was held at the Stained Glass Museum in Ely Cathedral and taught by Derek Hunt.
My passion lies in the stained glass craft, where I continue to collect knowledge and advance my skills to become a conservator and stained glass master in my own style. For now, my goal is to learn the traditional style of stained glass, grow my skills, thus in the future I could help to save the heritage of stained glass. Hopefully, piecing together enough of this knowledge that needs to be preserved and passed on to others will keep this tradition alive.

At present I work with fused, painted and cast glass. My limited resources mean a concentration on glass that is fused then painted and cast forms. I enjoy modelling in clay then casting from these sculptures.
I hope to reintroduce sand blasting into my range of techniques in the near future.

This series of works” Rank” invites you to have a view in a world where square is an ideal lifestyle. Each object is pursuing a dream, to be the squarest in the room. Showcasing perspectives on intense chaotic of competitive for an objective. Two different approaches: aiming to be the best or to be the first.
