An exploration with fire metal and glass

Handmade in my workshop in Thirsk on the edge of the Hambleton Hills in North Yorkshire. I take inspiration from Nature and the People I meet. I love colour - an amazing Azure Blue or a Spring Green on a white background can remind you of so many wonderful holidays and experiences.

I use recycled materials - some of my glass is over 50 years old and my hallmarking (where required) is through the Edinburgh Assay Office so quality is guaranteed.

I am a member of Heritage Craft and the Guild of Enamellers. Giving a gift to yourself or another is individual and by investing in my work you enable a heritage craft to continue.

I like to share my knowledge and see people burst with pride when they see what they have created. In the Scottish Borders I taught students and teachers from Selkirk High School and the school now incorporates enamelling in their Art Curriculum portfolio as a permanent addition. I do workshops to share my skills so it would be good to meet you.
