A big part of my sculptural creative development has involved materials I rarely use now.
Glass is a material I fell in love with and it has been the work I have exhibited most.
For now at least, I have stopped developing new work in glass indefinitely.
Ceramics on the other hand has been part of my creative process on and off for many more years than glass, and I occasionally return to making small batches of work in various clay types.

Glass and clay are very interconnected – clay for model making in glass and glass powders make glazes for ceramics.

Glass

From college to university, my glass making days have taken an indefinite break. However, they are a very important part of my creative history and the star of my most important exhibitions.

Techniques include fusing, slumping, blowing, kiln-casting, sand-casting, sandblasting and surface decoration.

Journeys Collection

Kiln-cast glass degree collection using the lost wax process. Exhibited in the West Midlands, London and Oxfordshire.

Glass Blowing

Using plaster moulds to form the shape or details of the outside of the glass.

Kiln-Forming & Cold-Working

Techniques ranging from cut or crushed glass fusing, slumping, sandblasting, wire inclusions and screen printing directly or with decals. Occasional mixed media using wood to display pieces or UV glue to join glass pieces.

Ceramics Gallery

Beginning my exploration at school but developing a lot at college and university; I have used a variety of techniques. Throwing being my favourite and most relaxing and Raku glazing the most exciting.

Techniques include throwing, turning, carving, decorating, marbling, imprinting, slip casting, pinching, coiling and slabbing.
