I have had an artistic background, and completed AVCE art & design, A Level Textiles, and NCFE Creative Crafts. I developed Skills in silver jewellery making, and also discovered  lampworking, before choosing to study applied arts at PCAD(Plymouth College of Art & Design)

I have taught myself many of the skills in the unique art of lampwork, and also learned from various U.K  bead artists.

My current work is about emotions and colours, and how each can have an effect on the other. Text anchors the meaning of the colour, but you only catch glimpses of it through the twisting, swirling canes of the vessel inside which it is trapped. Like everyone and everything, what's on the surface may not accurately represent what's going on inside. The colours may be beautiful, but their meaning is not. The vessels symbolise a way out, a release for these emotions, whilst hope remains totally encased, there is always hope.

In order to provide a continuing showcase for my work I am currently building this new website.
