ARTIST'S STATEMENT
My work reflects my passion for the environment and nature, being a keen ‘Friend of the Earth’ for many years. I have found inspiration in the many forms and colours of the natural world. I am also fascinated by the work of some of the great Art Nouveau Pate de Verre artists and their use of natural forms so creatively in their work. I find myself drawn to experiment with natural colours and forms to create my own version of the natural world in glass. CONTACT [email protected] |
ARTIST'S BACKGROUND
I started my journey with kiln-formed glass at Richmond and Hillcroft Adult Community College. Their courses have given me the opportunity to learn from many different teachers and fellow students over the years and try out many techniques, and so understand the amazing versatility of glass. I currently attend RHACC once a week for the Creative Glass - Intermediate/Advanced Workshop.
I have had the opportunity to exhibit at several exhibitions with Just Glass at Orleans House Gallery, The Malt house Gallery, Lyme Regis, the Espacio Gallery, London and the Coming of Age exhibition at the IFOG.
