Statement

My years in graphic design allowed me to develop skills in a wide range of creative processes and products and the move to glass seemed natural and spontaneous. I have always found it a fascinating and seductive material and love exploring its fluidity as a liquid, its sculptural quality as a solid and its transparency in the use of colour and light.

For me glass is the perfect medium, giving me creative and technical freedom and enabling me to produce something tactile, tangible and enduring, which I hope will give much pleasure to its owner, as it has to me its maker.
