About the Artist

I started my artistic journey creating jewellery.

Kiln-forming glass started as a means of adding a dramatic pop of colour to these sterling silver designs.

While jewellery remains a small part of my portfolio,

the scope of glass as a medium captivates me and has taken hold:

Colour, depth, light and shadow....

It's irresistable....

My learning process is both formal and experiential.

I've taken courses from glass masters,

and learned through personal trial and error.

I love learning new techniques in glass manipulation....

I hope and believe that my artistic journey will never be complete.

Let the creative process continue!

Firing in the kiln to temperatures as high as 1500+ degrees...

Using powders and frits, stringers and sheets...

Using the kiln to promote the flow of glass and

fully transform the glass...

All this means that no matter how a design begins,

I can't predict with certainty how a design will come out.

What I do know is that each and every work is a

unique labour of love!
