Venue address: Monan Gozzett Solicitors, 1 Tarrant Street, BN18 9DG
I am a Sussex Glass artist, who has been working with Traditional stained & Fused glass for the past 20 Years .
I am a retired trained chef & I now love experimenting with different techniques using glass . I often find ingredients in my kitchen such as foil, bicarbonate soda & include it in my fused glass . I love the fact that I never know how it will turn out .. a bit like cooking with glass!
I am inspired by my surrroundings, from the beach,sea & walks on the downs. You will find my work is subtle in colour ,but very textured & I do this layering up the glass ,heating at varying temperatures in my kiln to get different results . When I am in my workshop making , it doesn’t feel like work , it feels like my sanctuary & I feel privileged that I love what I do for a living!!
I also teach beginners glass classes in my garden workshop in central Worthing & offer gift vouchers , so a perfect gift for someone to have a creative experience & to take a beautiful piece of glass away that they have designed & made themselves . I love teaching & cannot wait to open my kiln & see the creations made, by myself or others.!.
