About
I hand-create art inspired by my encounters in remote wild nature using glass and dramatic techniques.
I have a passion for being in extreme wildernesses - especially sailing or diving in remote oceans with ocean life, mountains and ice.
These big expanses give me a sense of adventure and exhilaration and being there is a real privilege. Vast, rugged landscapes make me feel very small but connected with this world. I am concerned about their fragile future and want to raise awareness so others care and protect them too.
Glassblowing is the hardest thing I have ever done!
It’s challenging, expensive, addictive and satisfying.
I use unconventional making techniques which are part of my overall enjoyment.
I am self-taught through hiring studios around the UK and the owner for one-to-one tuition and through attending masterclasses in the UK and overseas. I first blew glass in 2012 and mid-2019 focused on it fully but only have around 150 days under my belt. In 2023 I opened my own studio in South Buckinghamshire.
In 2023 I appeared in the first BBC TV series “Make It At Market” (Series 1 Episode 9) which aired several times on BBC1, BBC2, iPlayer, BritBox, and U&Yesterday in the UK and worldwide.
