I work with glass, designing and making an exciting range of contemporary interior accessories suited for domestic and commercial environments. My current range of work includes a series of wall panels, mirrors, vessels and lighting. All pieces are hand made utilising various kiln forming processes which ensures that each piece is unique.

Inspiration for my work is taken from time spent travelling between rural and urban environments. Journeys carried out on foot, by car and by train all record architecture, patterns, rhythms and continuous shifts in the landscape.

Such events manifest themselves in my work through the manipulation and juxtaposition of the material. It is cut, layered, bent, cast, drilled and slumped. Motifs are often enclosed in the glass and sections assembled through the use of both traditional leading techniques and industrial fixing methods.

I have recently started to apply gold and silver leaf to the glass to intensify the colour used and reflect light further. I show my work nationally through galleries and am pleased to work to commission on a variety of scales for private and public spaces. I welcome visitors to my studio on the outskirts of Kendal.
