A
new piece of work for me always begins with walking, looking and drawing, and
my ideas are shaped by the time I spend out of doors. I also get a great deal of inspiration and
joy from the actual process of making, and of experimenting with a wide variety
of different materials. Glass is a
fascinating substance which changes with the light and the weather, giving
different moods on different days.
My
glass work is all kiln-formed, and I use fused glass to make sculptures for the
garden and wall-mounted pieces for interiors.
I also make three dimensional sculptures in cast glass and mixed
materials – mostly wood and metal.
I
live and have my studio in the village of Cuddington, three miles from Thame. After several years working as a painter and
sculptor, I began to experiment with glass in 2000, and now work mostly to
commission, producing large scale installations for homes and businesses.
