glassenamels
I have been working professionally as a glass artist since 2002, having
previously completed a glass degree at the University of Wolverhampton. From my
studio near Totnes in South Devon, I design and produce fused glasswork for
homes, hotels, hospitals and commercial spaces. I have for many years been
supplying glass splashbacks to John Lewis, with an exclusive collection of
designs. I have always used enamel powders to colour my glass, rather than
working with pre-coloured sheets. The use of the very fine powders enables me to
create unique shading and rich textures and patterns, which cannot be achieved
by any other method. At my spacious studio I run regular glass fusing classes
which are suitable for all abilities. I am a member of the Society of Designer
Craftsmen and the Crafts Council Directory, and in 2010 was awarded the Gold
Prize for Glass in the 'craft&design' Magazine Selected Maker Awards. I am also
a member of ACID (Anti Copying in Design) who have helped me to protect my
unique glass designs from being copied.
