Stained Glass / Leadlighting
I find colours very uplifting and glass shows off the colours to perfection. A leadlight window either abstract or traditional, or a suspended suncatcher can brighten any room or verandah in your home. Butterflies, blue wrens, robins and native birds are a specialty of mine.

Mosaics
Imagine the amount of glass left over from making a large window, this is what encourage me to start making glass mosaics. Almost anything can be covered in mosaic – garden ornaments, bowls, house numbers, table and pots. I have had commissions for more unusual items such as an elephant, cats on large pots from someone’s photos and leafy sea dragon on birdbaths.
Cat Mask Mosaic
Combining glass mosaic with hebel stone is a great combination for garden ornaments.
The Eagle
I've done many animal mosaics such as this design on an eagle sculpture as well as many vases with pet designs.
Beach Treasures
Combining coloured glass with found objects from the beach, creates a bright and dynamic design.
Slumped Glass
I find this very satisfying, arranging the glass in my kiln and waiting several hours to see the results. If it doesn’t work out it can be cut up and re-used to create another piece. No Waste. My mind is constantly searching for new ideas.
