“I live and work in the North Ayrshire town of West Kilbride, Scotland, home of Craft Town Scotland; a vibrant and dynamic social enterprise promoted by the community for the community. In my studio, I design, manufacture and exhibit various types of glasswork for sale:

Traditional Stained Glass leaded window panels and copper-foil work (Tiffany Style) including smaller pieces such as light catchers.

Fusion - Kiln fired fused decorative glasswork from wall lit panels to bespoke pieces to individual decorative slumped pieces such as bowls, plates and platters and Dichroic Fused Glass Jewellery.

Glass mosaic work including decorative wall hangings and wall lit panels.

I also work to commission producing bespoke pieces. Please feel free to telephone, drop me an email or visit my studio, to discuss any ideas you may have. We can discuss: your ideas; the size; the different forms of glasswork; the varied types of glass suited to your requirements.

With this information I will work out the cost of your bespoke piece and provide you with a detailed quote. After your initial consultation and once you have my quote and are happy to continue, a deposit is required to finalise the commission.

I will then produce a full size coloured cartoon design and a further meeting will be required at this point to make sure you are happy with everything.

Once you have agreed the design, I can begin the manufacturing process taking great care and pride to produce a wonderful piece of Glass Art unique to you, or a reproduction with a new lease of life inspired by you.

Whatever type of glasswork appeals to you, be it traditional or contemporary, I am more than happy to discuss your requirements. I can create a design of your choice using various ideas and styles and I very much look forward to working with you.”
