ARTIST'S STATEMENT
My glass is an emotional response to the coastal landscapes that have had an influence on my life. I am particularly inspired by the seascapes and geology of the Cornish Coast. The colour, textures and patterns of this landscape find their way into my glass. I use a range of kiln-formed techniques but I am drawn to pâte de verre (glass paste). My forms are created using clay and wax. Sand from my favourite locations incorporated into my work adds texture and ‘grounds’ my work, creating a sense of place.

ARTIST'S BACKGROUND
I began working in glass in 2016, having stepped back from full time work in the City. I was looking for a hobby, never realising that a one-week kiln-formed glass course at the Art Academy would lead to a full time addiction. I currently work out of my studio in South Wimbledon.
2019 – 2020: Post Graduate Studies Ceramics & Glass, Royal College of Art (RCA)
2017 – 2018: BTEC – Level 3, Glass, Kensington & Chelsea College
2016 – 2017: University of Creative Arts, Diploma Level 2 Art & Design – Glass, Kensington & Chelsea College
